Domenic Francis Lesandrini

Domenic Francis Lesandrini, 95, of Iron Mountain passed away Oct. 16, 2022, in the CLC at the Oscar G. Johnson VA Medical Center in Iron Mountain. Domenic was born Nov. 2, 1926, in Iron Mountain, the son of Domenic and Ermina Lesandrini. He enlisted into the U.S. Navy in 1943 where he served his country for 18 months. During his time in WWII, Domenic survived one of the largest typhoons in history while in the South Pacific. He moved to Milwaukee, WI, where he worked for the post office and then Allis-Chalmers. He married Anna Mae Mundingler in 1950. He moved back to Iron Mountain in 1979, then went to work for M.J. Electric. Dominic was a very active person and a wonderful neighbor, always lending a helping hand. He spent many years doing woodworking, making many projects for others. He was a devoted family man and loved being a grandfather and great-grandfather; he loved and adored them all. One of his greatest dreams was to see all of his three grandchildren grow up and get married before he died. He lived long enough to see that happen. Domenic is survived by one brother, Donald (Carol) Lesandrini of Boston; one son, Jeffery (Cathy) Lesandrini of Kingsford; three grandchildren, Kayla (Jim) Myers of Kingsford, Adam (Norhaine) Lesandrini of Iron Mountain, and Joseph (Candace) Lesandini of Iron Mountain; seven great-grandchildren, Kelly, Keith, Noel, Jimmy, Cooper, Elizabeth and Emma; many nieces and nephews; as well as a very special lady friend, Gert Koller, who was a lifeline for Domenic. Thank you, Gert, we love you. A special thank you goes to his niece, Karen Loper for all of your help and to Melony, his caregiver. In addition to his parents, he was preceded in death by his wife, one son, Gilbert Lesandrini, four sisters, seven brothers, as well as many nieces and nephews. Visitation will be at the Erickson-Rochon & Nash Funeral Home, 901 Carpenter Ave., from 1:00 p.m. to 2:00 p.m. on October 27, 2022, with Msgr. Joseph Gouin officiating a memorial service at 2:00 p.m. Burial will be in Iron Mountain Cemetery Park.
