My condolences to the family. He really had a fascinating career. I loved Bluebery hill and Ain't that a Shame. These are the ones, I am familiar with. He loved his wife.Loved the fact, he stayed home with her, in stead of touring, while she was I'll. Many artist sang his songs, because they were good. May the God of Comfort, continue to comfort the family.

I GREW UP AS A YOUNG SKINNY WHITE GIRL OFT THE 50'S .. CAME HOME FROM SCHOOL TO WATCH AMERICAN BANDSTAND, BEFORE DOING HOMEWORK, AND FATS DOMINO TOUCHED MY SOUL THEN, AS HE STILL DOES TO THIS DAY. I WAS FORTUNATE TO SEE HIM IN CONCERT AT A SMALL VENEU IN DETROIT CALLED THE RED GARTER, I WISH FOR JUST ONE HOUR I COULD RELIVE THAT SWEEET FACE, THAT SWEET SMILE, THAT SWEET TVOICE ... OH WHAT A PRICE I WOULD PAY TO SEE HIM AGAIN!

To the Domino Family:
Our sincerest condolences, prayers and love to each of you. Dad is now resting in the Arms of Jesus Christ and Perfectly Healed. I hold many treasured memories of The Domino family, while growing up at 1805 Caffin Avenue (the next block from your family). I remember one Christmas holiday, I heard someone playing the piano (and I knew it was not my Mom). Tipped down the stairs and it was Bro. Domino; my cousin, Russell Watson had brought him. The most recent treasured memory is when Bro. Domino accepted Jesus Christ and was baptized at Branch Bell Baptist Church. A true and cherished legacy that came out of the Lower 9th Ward. May his memory be a testimony; continue holding to God's Unchanging Hand.
Love you All

Just lost my own sweet music "Man from Gumboland" on October 10th at 5:32PM PST, my best friend for 22 years. His birthday was also February 26th. Your father's music had a permanent place in the car stereo because we both loved his piano playing the most, pure sunshine in our hearts. His music will be a comfort to you forever, just as it will always bring joy to others.

Fats, may you rest in peace. May you dance on those streets of gold with your beloved Rose Mary. And, may the Lord bless your family. As a teen, I spent every penny of my allowance on records. I bought all of yours. You provided hours of pure joy & entertainment to me & my friends. The last time I saw you in person was at Dean Goss Dinner Theater in Houston. I spoke with you backstage. You spoke of Elvis. You were so humble & unassuming. The show was great, along with Dave & all of the horns. That was in the '80's. Thanks for the memories!

Mr. Fats Domino, you are indeed a legend whose music is timeless and definitive of that New Orleans beat. My mother listened to you when I was a little girl, and so I grew up listening to and loving your music also, which I passed along to my son - who was singing "Hit the Road, Jack" as a toddler in daycare. You will be missed by millions.

Fats (Antoine Dominique Domino III) was a good friend to my father, Louis Cabiran, who was his doctor, and to my whole family. He was kind and gracious to everyone. There was much more to him than just his music. And his music meant more to the world than he knew. He will be remembered fondly forever.
