💙🖤 Two Years Gone, Forever Remembered 🖤💙
Today, June 17, 2026, marks two years since we lost our beloved Officer Michael Thomas Kominsky Sr..
Not a day passes without thoughts of Mike. His absence is deeply felt by his family, friends, fellow officers, and the community he loved so fiercely. Yet, while we mourn the loss of an extraordinary man, we celebrate the legacy he left behind—a legacy that continues to grow throughout the town he proudly called home.
For 29 years, Mike served the people of West Bridgewater with honor, integrity, compassion, and dedication. He wasn't simply a police officer; he was a neighbor, a mentor, a friend, a husband, a father, a son, a brother, and now a grandfather whose love continues to guide those he left behind.
Over the past two years, Mike's memory has become permanently woven into the fabric of our community.
🌳 An Autumn Red Maple stands proudly at War Memorial Park, serving as a living reminder of a life well-lived and a legacy that continues to grow.
🪑 A Memorial Bench overlooking the beautiful Town River provides a place for reflection, peace, and remembrance—a spot where family, friends, and community members can sit quietly and remember Mike's unwavering love for his hometown.
⭐ The dedication of Mike's Island at the intersection of Bryant and Arch Streets marks a special place in the neighborhood where Mike grew up. Located within sight of his childhood home, the island stands as a permanent tribute to a hometown hero who never forgot where he came from.
Most importantly, through the kominskyfund.com�, Mike's spirit of service continues to impact future generations. Scholarships are awarded in his name, community events bring families together, and acts of kindness continue to honor the values he lived every day.
Mike would be incredibly proud of Michael Jr., Madison, his grandchildren Michael Thomas Kominsky III and Grayson James, and all those who have worked tirelessly to ensure that his legacy continues to inspire others.
Though his watch ended on June 17, 2024, his influence never will.
A Legacy of Service. A Future of Opportunity.
Forever loved.
Forever missed.
Forever remembered.
💙 Officer Michael Thomas Kominsky Sr.
💙 March 27, 1973 – June 17, 2024
