Spotlight on...Dominick Detore!

Happy Friday, everyone! Thank you for stopping by!

 Two weeks ago, I did a blog that focused on Janine and so,  this week will be about her husband of almost 22 years, Dominick (they have an anniversary coming up very soon!).

 As mentioned previously, Janine and Dom have seven children. What a beautiful family they have!

If you follow Dominick on Twitter, you know that he is a loving father and proud of his family.  He posts pictures all the time of them,  like the one above. I just had to include this one of Dominick, Janine and their youngest, Ronnie together. This is one of the many Dominick has shared.

Not only is he a good dad, he's still a loving and romantic husband, too! For two of Janine's birthdays, he threw her a surprise party with all her family and friends.

Last week, I did a post on Janine's store, Country Mouse, which Dominick bought for her. Janine goes to clothing shows to buy inventory for her store and Dominick supports her by going with her to those events and helping her buy new items. Janine says he is supportive not only with her business, but in all projects she's involved in. 

Dominick has a contracting business located on Staten Island called 2D Construction which he started with Janine. He does amazing work. He remodeled The Drunken Monkey, his sister in law's bar. If you watched Season One of Big Ang, he was actually on the first episode called "Big Shots" when Angela was explaining how the bar was redone. 

 I am going to add my two cents in here. I have been to the Drunken Monkey twice. I didn't get to see it before it was redone, but now it is a very pretty and welcoming bar.

In addition to doing commercial businesses, Dominick also works on homes as well. This week, Janine shared a picture of her own home showing Dominick's beautiful work. This is a picture of their new theater room. Who wouldn't love to see a movie in this room?

More of my own opinion here: While this room is classy looking, Dominick also kept it comfortable as well. It looks beautiful, but also a place just to relax, get together and watch television or movies. I bet Shark Tank is going to be watched here!!

Dominick also worked on constructing the assistance stations on Pier 94 after the horrific 9/11 tragedy. These stations were made to help people in finding family members and provided general assistance with anything they could including loss of jobs or housing. These are the kinds of things that stand as a person's legacy and something to be proud of. 

If you need commercial or residential work done in the New York area, give 2D a call at 718-816-9700. 

When I asked what should be known about Dominick, Janine was quick to say that he is a "wonderful, kind hearted person that helps people any chance he gets." That's a direct quote, Dominick! Go give your Mrs. a kiss for that one!
