elevated xIbl0 January 23rd, 2002 ~ December 30th, 2020
elevated xIbl0 David Marques-Domingos, at the solem age of 18, a beloved and immortalized son, grandson and insurmountable brother – a cherub who’s smile reached all hearts and whose spirit gifted all those who crossed his path – has earned his wings and was welcomed into the arms of the holy father. David is survived by his parents, Cina & Derek, his younger sister, Olivia, his grandparents Avó Lucinda, Avô Manuel and Avó Ilda, his uncles, Tios Gil,Tap & Kevin, his aunts Tias Carla & Lourdes and cousin Daniel, Cassandra, mark and Max, joining his Avô Santos in heaven.
elevated xIbl0 The kindest of souls, the sweetest of hearts, the warmest of smiles and a selfless devotion to his family and friends – he is everyone’s child, brother, nephew and friend.
elevated xIbl0 Devout Willowdale Blackhawks hockey teammate, mischievous sueca player and nothing but beloved memories of many family vacations to Quebec, Portugal, Brazil, California, the rockies… Although David participated in many school sports teams (soccer, volleyball, badminton, basketball, ultimate frisbee…) he always seemed “Free like a bird” and happiest whenever he was on the ice playing his favorite game with his friends. David was the family IT “guru” whose passion for computers led him to pursue a university degree in Computer science. Drives in the Benz, late nights with friends, private moments with Olivia – nothing will ever replace the presence of our spirited David.
elevated xIbl0 He will forever be our David – king of hearts, bestower of smiles, deliverer of affection.
elevated xIbl0 May he watch over us and may we look up to him in our times of sorrow – finding peace in the memory of his presence and beautiful smile.
elevated xIbl0 In lieu of flowers, for those of you wishing to do so, donations to the David Marques-Domingos Memorial Fund in support of Willowdale Sports Club would be greatly appreciated. https://gofund.me/65a8713f

We lost a great friend and wonderful nephew, but the universe received a new beautiful star. Our David will be remembered for ever and ever. May his soul rest in peace in company of Avô Manuel Santos.

Cina, Derek and Olivia,
I was very sad to hear this news, and cannot begin to imagine the pain that you are going through. You saw yesterday the overwhelming support of David’s friends and teammates from Willowdale and elsewhere. He touched us all. I have seen many players on many teams over the years and David was one of my favourites to watch. He was a man the last time I saw him on the ice, this time on the opposing team. Obviously, he led Willowdale to another convincing victory. When I asked Alex about his impressions of David as a player he uttered one word- class. So true. Rest peacefully David.
Dear Cina, Derek and Olivia,
My deepest condolences on the the passing of David.
My love, strength and prayers go out to each of you and the extended family and friends David left behind. The loss of David is tragic, unfathomable, and devastating and my heart goes out to you
Love always Laura Self and Jesse and Ryder Delson.

Je me souviendrai toujours du petit David de Ste-Madeleine comme un élève tellement gentil, qui avait beaucoup d’empathie pour les élèves en besoin et sur qui je pouvais toujours compter pour venir aider à la CPV. Un garçon avec un immense cœur.
Déploie tes ailes David, et veille sur nous.

Cina & Derek,
I am so very sorry for your loss. David was an amazing human being. Those who knew him knew that. He was a loyal friend, a terrific teammate and tough opponent. You are all in my thoughts and prayers.
David was a kind hearted person I’ve been beyond lucky to know him and I couldn’t thank him enough. My deepest condolences on the passing of David. May god give comfort and peace within all of you. Sending healing prayers and comforting hugs.
Dear Cina, Derek and Olivia,
Please accept my most sincere condolences.
I never met David.
However, through Derek, it feels like I knew him. That is one of the many ways love spreads: a loving father that shares anecdotes full of his son’s smiles, adventures and high hopes. These tales never go unnoticed because what ever the story, they really breathe of one thing and one thing only: the love between a father and a son. They breathe of pride, of happiness, and they spread the warmth of the love around. This is a love that can be shared without getting any smaller. A love that can be spread around but that will never be lost. A love that grows in each and every tiny moment but stays with us a lifetime.
I hope you can find comfort in those sweet memories and that they somehow, with time, bring you peace.
David was loved and his young soul, nurtured by your love, will always be with you.
France and family

Fiston,
C’est comme cela que j’aimais t’appeler David. La nouvelle de ta disparition m’a porté un choc. Si jeune, si beau, tout l’avenir devant toi. Je n’y ai pas cru sur le coup, mais c’est bien vrai tu es parti. Si tot! Tu laisses des parents éplorés, une petite soeur dévastée, des amis consternés et tes enseignants immensément tristes. Qui pourra consoler tout ce monde de ton départ si brutal? J’ai beaucoup demandé l’intercession de la Vierge Marie pour toi. Tu as vécu pleinement ta vie. Tu mérites maintenant de porter la couronne de gloire des justes dans le ciel.
Bon vent fiston et prie pour nous.
Tu resteras dans nos pensées et dans nos coeurs.
Derek and Cindy, and family.
There are no words that I can say that would be enough to console you.
Our prayers are with you at this difficult time.

Mon cher David,
Les mots me manquent pour exprimer le chagrin que je partage avec tes parents à mon humble niveau. Ton départ laisse derrière toi un vide insondable que personne ne pourra combler, à part peut-être la grâce et l’amour de Dieu. Je te remercie pour tout ce que tu m’as apporté pendant les trois années que je t’ai eu comme élève à MGRC. Je garderai surtout en mémoire ton sourire franc et généreux, ton attitude respectueuse et ta loyauté envers tes amis.
Merci de m’avoir donné le privilège de te connaître et de t’estimer à ta juste valeur. Déploie tes ailes, va et vole vers ce royaume réservé aux anges.
Cina, Derek and Olivia,
The last few days have shown how David has been family to so many of us. He was a leader on a team I had the privilege to coach and a player I had the pleasure to watch always give more then what was ever asked of him.
David’s love of hockey was always put on display by his incredible smile, making us all love the game just that much more because of him.
I am lucky to have known David and offer my love and support to his family.
Coach Steven
Dear Derek, Cina and Olivia – words cannot express the sorrow we feel for the loss of David. A great teammate and friend has passed away.

We send you our love and heartfelt prayers hoping it will give you strength to get through this difficult time. May God rest his soul in peace.

Je me souviendrai toujours du sourire de David, de sa gentillesse et de son esprit d’entraide, surtout avec nos défis techniques d’ordis!
Sachez que vous et David soient dans mes pensées.
Mme Lynda Rinkenbach
Dear Cina Derek and Olivia
If we needed more proof that bad things happen to good people, this tragedy reminds us of the truth of this painful reality. David and his whole family gave so much good to our hockey community. Even in the midst of this painful loss, they continue to give. David was a great guy with an incredibly generous family. We will remember him always. Our heartfelt condolences to the family and all who knew him.
John and Gabe Fleming
Cher David,
Comment exprimer tout ce que nous ressentons pour toi sans être ravagé par ton si cruel départ ? Comment saurons-nous nous adresser à toi sans tenir compte de ton absence ? Il nous reste aujourd’hui que ces paroles muettes que nous n’avons pas su ou pu t’adresser et qui restent gravées sur chaque paroi de notre cœur à l’encre indélébile de la douleur et des larmes.
L’année dernière, quelques jours avant ta graduation, tu es venu me voir et me remercier pour les trois années pendant lesquelles tu as sans doute dû me supporter en tant que prof. Je te dis aujourd’hui ce que je n’ai pas eu le temps de te dire ce jour-là. Je garderai de toi l’image d’un garçon qui ne se mettait jamais en avant et qui pourtant ne passait pas inaperçu, d’un élève parfois rebelle, mais jamais irrespectueux, d’un camarade de classe généreux avec ses pairs, à l’image même de ton sourire qui te devançait partout où tu allais.
Ton sourire, chacun de nous qui sommes présents aujourd’hui, nous le portons désormais au fond de nous comme une lampe divine éclairant la route de notre vie. Je me rends compte de plus en plus à quel point tu as rempli de ta présence chaque couloir et chaque classe de Mgr de Charbonnel. Merci de nous avoir donné le privilège de te connaître et de t’estimer à ta juste valeur. Merci d’avoir fait de nous de meilleurs enseignants.
Cher Derek, Cina et Olivia,
Je partage votre chagrin en ces moments difficiles. Je vous prie d’accepter mes sinceres condoleances.
Dear Cina, Derek and Olivia,
Our deepest and sincerest condolences. May God give you the strength and courage to endure this difficult pain. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.
Georges Marques and Family
David was a friend, a bright young man with a bright future. It was an honor knowing you for all these years. I will never forget you. You never know how much you’re really attached to people until they’re gone so always do everything with love. Hug your loved ones and tell them you love them. When I said goodbye to you in March, I never knew it was the last conversation, the last smile, the last hug, the last goodbye…Thank you for all the moments of laughter, thank you for being you and thank you for all the tough hockey teaching…lol you don’t mess with David and his hockey. Thank you for helping me with math and sending me notes when I couldn’t understand but then I wouldn’t understand your writing anyway so I would still be lost . Thank you for the fun school trips and being the first one to tell me “Yeo you missed so much in math, but it’s easy” even though it really WAS NOT that easy lol he was a little math genius. Thank you for the angry moments, you never held a grudge and you were still always there to make me laugh. Thankyou for considering me a friend. Thank you for being our “Mangos”. You were such a kind hearted man with an amazing soul and you will be deeply missed. To David’s family, I am so sorry. I cannot imagine what you guys are going through and I pray for you everyday. I pray that God helps and holds your hearts, God will never give up on you guys. David is watching over you guys and he will never let you guys go. David, Rest in Paradise. You are my brother in Christ and I love you. God we trust you, thank you everything you do and continue to do for us. Heaven has welcomed an angel and is celebrating Rest in peace brother.
We love and miss you so much champion.
David was an amazing friend that I did not have opportunity to hangout with much other than online, even thou he was such a nice person that I would have loved to get to know him better face to face. Even thou I did not know him for a long time, it still hurts when I think about him and how he passed and I cherished every moment we had.
My deepest condolences to the family.
I first met David in grade 9, we did not talk much but I found him so fun to be around, I started talking and playing video games with him and that’s where we bonded. I realized that now, David was not only there for me when I needed him but he was teaching and helping me improve myself in more ways than just school. One fond memory I have of David out of many is when we were working on a presentation about Cyrano de Bergerac in Mr.Foolchand’s class. All the time I spent with him memorizing and learning the script together was filled with jokes and laughter. David is the person who made french class, a class I often felt myself feeling bored in, something to look forward to rather than dread.
In grade 12, it was a time where David and I really bonded. he used to be there when I’m hurt or in need of a friend. We spent hours playing on the switch during lunch break or any chance we got, but my favourite time was the online time we spent together playing among us and listening to music or sometimes just enjoying each other’s company. The most fun time I ever had with him has to be working on a coding project where we made websites, games, applications, and many many more. That class was where David and I found our new passion for coding, It was the class we spent the most energy on and by the end of the year, he became extremely confident at coding and had a bright future waiting for him.
I knew him for 4 years, which might not seem like a long time, but I cherished every second we shared together and I still cry every time I think about him. Honestly, I’m not sure how I’ll live on without him. I will always remember him and I’ll never forget all the great moments we shared, all the things he did for me, all the things that made David himself.
All my love goes out to the family.
FLY HIGH DAVID!!
I am very sorry for this terrible loss. David was a great guy and a friend that I am glad to have known. Even though he and I never became the closest of friends, I know that I would have loved to and that he really deserved much better from life. I am praying for Mr. and Mrs. Marques-Domingos, Olivia and the rest of David’s family, and so that David may forever rest in peace. Goodbye David, I know you are in a better place. You won’t be forgotten.
Derek and family,
Deepest sympathies and heartfelt condolences to all of you. There are really no words that can express the loss of a bright and shining man so young and so loved as David was by so many.
May God help you through this very difficult time and you can find solace and strength in those dear memories you will always have and your everlasting love of David.
I add my thoughts and prayers to those of all your family and friends and hope our collective support and positive energy will help you to find the strength and the light to bear this time of sorrow.

Please accept our condolences on the loss of your son David. I will always remember the last time Ginny and I saw David and Olivia with Derek 10 years ago when we had just moved to our new house. David and his sister were playing with our two Golden Retriever puppies, Rocky and Hudson, with smiles on their faces. Our thoughts and prayers are with you as you suffer this undeniable loss.
