Dominique Bulfair
June 21, 1931 - September 25, 2012
Bradford, VT- Dominique Bulfair, 81, of Bradford passed away peacefully at her home on Tuesday, September 25, 2012 after a short, yet courageous battle with cancer. She was born Dominique Mott on June 21, 1931 in Hazelton, PA. Although Dominique did not graduate from high school she never let that stop her from following her dreams. She moved to New York and married John Bulfair in 1956 where they both pursued a career in Flamenco dancing. She later joined a life in the theatre. Dominique performed in numerous off-off Broadway productions and received much critical acclaim, including an Obie nomination for best comedic role in the Silver Screen. One of her most memorable experiences in the theatre was doing summerstock in Bradford, VT in 1974. She loved the community so much that she later came back to the area to re-open the theatre in 1984 where she remained as Artistic Director of the Old Church Theatre for twenty years, with her trusted business partner and technical director, Maryalice Klammer. They were both later honored as Deputy Marshalls in the Bradford Parade for their various contributions for the community. Dominique touched the life of many and brought exceptional entertainment and life into the community. She also worked as a bookkeeper for both the Bliss Village Store and Our Lady of Perpetual Help Catholic Church both in Bradford, VT until nearly her 80th birthday. She loved nature and animals, especially cats and humming birds; lilac and summer trees, the Arts (especially mystery novels), good conversation, and a spirited game of Royalty. She had a wonderful sense of humor, was kind and loved life. Dominiquie is survived by her daughter, Blaise, her ex-husband, John Bulfair and her two cats, Noah and Sheba. A Mass of Christian Burial will be held on Tuesday, October 2, 2012 at 11 am in Our Lady of Perpetual Help Catholic Church with Father Vincent officiating. There are no calling hours. Burial will be held at a later date. In lieu of flowers, please make donations in her memory to the Newbury Vet Clinic, 3890 Route 5 North, Newbury, V05051.
