| Member |  Re: Domenic Mobilio man oh man, of all the people you would think this kinda thing would not happen to. young, strong, fit and to top it all off he was a genuinely nice person. and not a bad 'pitch and putter' as i have heard. Tony, if you end up reading all these nice posts about your brother you should be proud of how Dom was appreciated by the people he met and the ones who only wished they had. he is an inspiration to many young soccer kids who heard Vic Rauter bellow out "Mobeeeeeeeeeeelio!!" when he scored for Canada it brings a tear to my eye to write this...Condolences to your family simon |

| Premium Member A Better Bastard  | Re: Domenic Mobilio Dom was really an amazing person. It didn't matter if he was with Stevie Mac, Cam Bowman or who ever. Dom would always make you feel like he was generally happy to see you or who ever you were with. What a breath of fresh air to have someone who never took himself to serious. Class both on and off the field. He knew how to have a good time and make someone feel very comfortable. Well done Dom, first class now and forever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Take care Tony and Family. Everyones prayers are with all of you. Ken Cormack

| Member | Re: Domenic Mobilio Domenic was truly a special player and person. His true potential as a coach had not yet been realised. I roomed with Dom on the "A" Licence course in Toronto this past summer and the passion and knowledge he showed as a player was also there as a coach. The finest out and out clinical finisher that I ever played with. He will be sadly missed. Especially by the kids in the future who will not be touched by his wisdom. A tragic day for everyone involved with the game here in Canada. To the Mobilio family our heartfelt sympathies go out to you. Shaun Lowther and family. |

| Member | Re: Domenic Mobilio Truly shocking. He was larger than life, but to meet and know him...he was the humblest of men. Tony...for every wonderful thing you had to say about your brother, he always had 2 things to say about you. He was an incredible person and an ambassador to the sport...we have lost a legend! From my family and I, to Tony and his...our deepest heart filled condolences. Sincerely, Darren Nott |
