James Scott
Dominy
Oct 31, 1958 — Aug 7, 2024
JAMES SCOTT DOMINY, "Scott", was born on October 31, 1958, to J.B. and Betty Dominy in
Houston, Texas. Scott was called home to heaven on Wednesday, August 7, 2024, where he
joined his parents and grandparents and is still bragging about his two sons and grandsons!
He is survived by his wife, Lori, sons Aaron (Erin) and Brett, two adorable grandsons, Bryce
and Kase Dominy, sister, Debbie Dominy, Father-in-Law and Mother-In-Law, J.R. and
Gloria Boliver and a host of family and friends who will miss him dearly.
Scott grew up in Houston, primarily in the North Shore area where he gained many lifelong
friends. His early years included lots of street baseball, football, basketball, and many hours
playing his Strat-O-Matic Baseball game. He went on to play Little League, followed by High
School baseball. He had many fond memories of his baseball days playing multiple positions
on the North Shore Mustangs Baseball team and being a Rounder for the school mascot,
Thunder. His love for the Astros began early in life, listening to the Houston Colt .45s games
on the radio, often by sneaking the radio to his bed so his Mom wouldn't know! He was an
Astros fan his entire life, often referred to as the "Astros Go-To" for stats and facts.
Scott and Lori married in November, 1987, in Houston, Texas. He was a devoted and loving
husband whose love never wavered, making that abundantly clear on a daily basis. He
showed grace often, was quick to forgive and loved his family fiercely. Scott and Lori
welcomed Aaron in 1989 and Brett in 1992, and Scott spent the next phase of his life being a
dedicated baseball Dad to Aaron, while supporting Brett throughout his school years and
milestones and made it abundantly clear that his boys were his life. Love of all things "boys"
doubled when Aaron and Erin blessed the family with two precious grandsons, Bryce and
Kase. Scott was so proud of his boys and when the Grand-loves came along his heart was
overflowing with pure joy and love. He spent many evenings in his recliner rewatching video's
of the littles with a huge smile on his face, and couldn't wait until the next visit when he would
see them again!
Scott had many lifelong friends and was great about keeping in touch with them all. He spent
many weekend evenings in his man-cave chatting and reminiscing while enjoying his favorite
adult beverage, Jack and Diet Coke. The family would like to acknowledge those who took
time out of their busy schedules to visit him while he was at MD Anderson: Mitch Gray, Lane
Watkins, Gregg Mosley, Billy Boaz and David Clifton, he treasured your friendship.
Scott underwent surgery for recurring skin cancer on his cheek and nose at MD Anderson on
May 1, 2024. While the surgery was extensive, the family was optimistic that after a grueling
round of radiation, they could continue on with life and love. However, the Squamous Cell
Carcinoma had other plans and after four weeks of radiation and a month at MD Anderson
Hospital, he lost his battle. Please let this be a lesson to us all to be more cognizant of our
own bodies, get regular skin checks, and encourage your loved ones to do the same.
A private Celebration of Life will be held at a later date
