Members of the Maryland Troopers Association Lodge No. 20 gathered on Jan. 3 and traded stories about their days working with former Maryland State Trooper Dominic Dattilio. Dattilio, a Korean War veteran and tireless volunteer in the community, died at Carroll Hospital Center on Jan. 2. He was 80.

After retiring from the state police, Dattilio served as traffic control chief for the Carroll County roads department before he retired from there in 1993.

He knew every road, nook and cranny in the county and its history.

Dattilio was the husband of M. Jayne Warner Dattilio. He was born Oct. 5, 1930, near Hagerstown, and graduated from Hagerstown High School in 1948. He graduated from the Maryland State Police Academy in October 1959, and was first stationed at the Randallstown barrack until the opening of the Westminster barrack in September 1961. There, he served until he retired in 1983 at the rank of sergeant.

First Sgt. Holly Barrett, assistant Westminster barrack commander, attested to Dattilio's leadership, dedication and commitment.

Dominic Christopher Dattilio, 80, died Jan. 2, 2011, at Carroll Hospital Center.

The husband of M. Jayne Warner Dattilio. Born Oct. 5, 1930, near Hagerstown, he was the son of Nicola and Rosa Prospera Dattilio.

Friends and colleagues say Dattilio always had a smile on his face, a kind word, and he always knew what he was doing — and all the history and background necessary to understand why a particular task needed to be accomplished.

He was not only the best at whatever challenge he undertook, he was always friendly, polite and nice — and forthright. You never really needed to guess as to where he stood about an issue.

Dattilio was known for his encyclopedic knowledge of state police history, Carroll County history, and coins.
