I had the privilege of meeting Mr. Dolson (Carl) and his sweet, sweet wife while working as a Home care nurse in Peoria. Carl is one of those special people that you do not forget. I'm so sorry for your loss. I pray for sweet memories and everlasting peace in Jesus name.

One of the best bosses and kindest person you'd ever want to meet. I had the privilege of working with him at RSM McGladrey for 9 years and I also had the honor of him being a patient at the physicians office that I'm the administrator of. He came to the office for years, and at one point almost everyday for eight months. He always had a smile on his face thru all those tough times. He will be missed by many and touched so many lives. I must add he was an avid Cubs fan. What more could...

My condolences to Carl's family.
I had the privilege of working with Carl. He was thoughtful, professional and of the highest integrity. More importantly, he was a truly decent person.
