Dominic M Lusk was an better than ordinary student and even now takes satisfaction from the fact that he was better than his sister and brother at education. In the year 1975, Dominic’s father wanted to join his brother’s business and the Lusk family shifted to Kansas City, because of this. Dominic continued with his schooling in Dominic Lusk Kansas City and at the same time, started to assist his father and uncle in their milk delivery business. His adolescence was as unremarkably common, as his childhood had been. Dominic by now was well acquainted with his heritage and thankful for the relative independence that his people enjoyed. Dominic Lusk’s biggest influence at this age was not Martin Luther King but surprisingly, an African American fire fighter by the name Robert Lowery, who became the first black fire commissioner in the US. Dominic had a longing to become a fire fighter like his hero. When he completed school with decent marks, he expressed this desire to his parents and also informed them that he had no intention to pursue bigger Studies. His parents had to reluctantly accept to this and Dominic right away joined the fire service of Dominic Lusk Kansas City to live his dream.
As the time passed by, Dominic’s fascination and passion for fire fighting steadily lessened as he understood that the fire fighter’s job was difficult, arduous and thankless; which necessitated huge hours and very small rewards. His lack of higher education also limited his opportunities to move up the work ladder. But, he had a decent job that paid well. In 1986, he married Nancy (who is his long lost relative from his mother’s side), after a romance of almost 700 days. Dominic’s and Nancy’s son William was born in the year 1988 and that is when Dominic accepted that he had to complete higher studies to earn more for his family. He took up private studies and since he had always been a above average student, he was able to do his graduation within four years. Just before his graduation, Dominic was given an opportunity to move to the administrative division in the fire service department. He gratefully moved and still enjoys to work there till today. The years between 1993 and 2003 were uneventful job wise but was full of anguish personally. His father died in 1994, his mother passed away in 1998 and his wife left this abode in 2003. What a painful span of 10 years!
Dominic Lusk decided not to marry again after his wife’s demise and opted to be a single parent to William. William is 20 years young now and is on the verge of finishing his graduation. Dominic’s responsibilities towards his family are almost done and he now is looking ahead to the day when he can lead a life for for his own enjoyment; he wants to start his happy childhood all over again!
