Dennis Domijan was born in Fontana, California on July 22, 1964. He grew up and lived in Southern California until he, his wife and daughters traveled the California coast in 1994 landing in Willow Creek. 

Dennis was a man of honor, integrity and compassion with the most jovial spirit, and is cherished by family, friends and many community members. Everyone remembers him for his big cheery smile, his laughter, willingness to help others, kindness, generosity and industriousness. He carried a genuine heart of gold and is well known for being a great guy; he truly was an irreplaceable, one-of-a-kind man. He was always easy to talk with, laugh with, great with words and listened with empathy. For those who didn’t know him that personally, you likely knew him as your mechanic, given his 30+ years of dedication and service to keeping people mobile for work, travel, commutes and driving throughout these beautiful mountain communities. He enjoyed music, hunting, traveling, beach days, accomplishing projects and most of all spending time with his wife, girls, family, friends, dogs and God, ensuring to make memories that last a lifetime time and beyond. His kind-hearted spirit and unforgettable smile are the legacy that he leaves us with. Through his demonstration of actions, may we all always be kind, help each other, forgive and reserve judgment. 

At the age of 61, on September 6, 2025, Dennis passed unexpectedly and swiftly with dignity while doing what he loved - hunting, enjoying God’s beauty in the mountains and being in serenity. Let his memory be a blessing to us all and may we never forget his smile, laugh and spirit.

Dennis Domijan is survived by his wife and best friend of 43 years Deborah Domijan, his oldest daughter and son-in-law Jennifer and Joshua Agne, his youngest daughter and son-in-law Julieann and Dennis Bieneck, granddaughter Robyn Weiss, grandsons Rhiland Weiss and Royce Bieneck, his loving mother Doris Domijan, brothers Frank and Jeff, his pups -  Honey and Velvet and extended family including nieces, nephews, great-nieces and nephews and cousins who all love and miss him dearly. He is preceded in death by his father Frank Domijan and grandparents. 

We would like to thank Trinity Alps Funeral Home for their empathy and handling our loved one with care. 

A celebration of life will be announced at a later date. 

In lieu of flowers, the family would be grateful for continued prayers, kind thoughts and support from the community, reflecting the spirit of care that Dennis shared throughout his life.
