Dominic J. Dowgewicz, 89, of Windsor, beloved husband of the late Pauline (Kobus) Dowgewicz, passed away peacefully on Wednesday, February 5, 2020 surrounded by his family at St. Francis Hospital. Born in Rockville to the late Peter and Pauline (Kowlowski) Dowgewicz, he was a graduate of Rockville High School and has been a Windsor resident for over 60 years. Dominic proudly served his country with the US Air Force during the Korean War and transferred to the Air National Guard where he continued to serve for 40 years, retiring as Chief Master Sergeant. He was a long-standing parishioner of St. Robert Bellarmine Church in Windsor Locks and never missed the daily televised mass. Dominic and Pauline loved trips to the shore, especially Wells, Maine, but most importantly enjoyed spending time with family. Dominic will be fondly remember for his warm, welcoming manner and sense of humor. He is survived by his sons, Paul Dowgewicz of Suffield, Mark Dowgewicz of Ft. Lauderdale, FL, Alan Dowgewicz and his wife Ellen of Windsor, and Gary Dowgewicz of Windsor; and his grandchildren, Jacob and Rachel. Besides his wife and parents, he was predeceased by his brother Leonard. A Mass of Christian Burial will be held at 10:30 AM Tuesday, February 11 at St. Robert Bellarmine Church, 52 South Elm St. Windsor Locks, followed by burial with military honors in Windsor Veterans Memorial Cemetery. His family will receive friends prior to the Mass on Tuesday from 8:30 AM to 10 AM at the Carmon Poquonock Funeral Home, 1816 Poquonock Ave, Poquonock section of Windsor.
