Dominick Bianchi family issues statement

Bianchi's father-in-law provided the following statement to NEWS10 upon hearing about Bianchi's death.

Every family has its share of great joy and profound sadness. Four months ago, we experienced the joy of welcoming Dom into our family, and now we feel the intense pain of his loss. Dom was a husband, a son, a brother, a nephew, and a friend. He will be so missed by so many people. But even in this darkness, there is light. Although we were new to this community, we were treated as though we were lifelong residents. Thank you all for the notes you left at our door; the food; the coffee; and the words of encouragement. Thank you for allowing us to put posters in your places of business. Thank you to the young boys who searched the trail every night on their bikes. Kindness reverberates; anything hateful or insensitive directed at Dom’s family and friends who are deeply grieving this loss is not how he would have wanted his memory to be preserved. Thank you to Detective Mike and Detective Griffin. You promised you would look for Dom as if he was a member of your own family, and you more than fulfilled that promise. Thanks to the East Greenbush Police Department, the State Police, Rensselaer County Search and Rescue, EnCon, the dog handlers, and everyone else who helped with the search for Dom. Thanks to our family and friends for your eternal support.
