Life is a dragon that ends up swallowing us all.

Dominic was a driving force. Single-handedly, he managed to rally people around projects bigger than life. He had a unique talent for bringing out the best in the people around him and for convincing them of the merits of his projects.

For me, and surely many others, he was a source of inspiration. Through him, I went from a mere spectator to a committed player. My own involvement is only a pale copy of all the time he devoted to making things better for everyone.

His sudden passing has made many of us take a hard look at ourselves. He lived intensely, and many will remember him for a long time. At the same time, is life only about work and others? I deeply believe in balance. It is essential to throw ourselves fully into what we do, while not forgetting ourselves. In the end, we are only the memory others will keep of us ;-)

We will miss you dearly!
