Chester J. "Chet" Billings

Just did a quick search of Mr. Billings. Thought of him while successfully peeling a mandarin orange while leaving the peel totally intact. Ya, it's not an orange, like he challenged us to peel without ripping the peel in class in 1975/76 8th grade Earth Science.

Earth Science could have been boring and forgettable, but, because...

Mrs. Billings and family, Very sorry to hear of your loss. My thoughts and prayers are with you all at this difficult time.

My condolences to Mrs. Billings and family. Was very sad to hear of the passing of a wonderful person.Mr. Billings was a great Coach, good communicator and always had a great sense of humor. I always cherished his words of encouragement in tough times. May your rest in peace.

Nancy and family, Very sorry for your loss. May his memory be a blessing always. --Ann Raszmann Brown and family

A wonderful teacher who made learning fun. Rest in peace in the arms of our Lord. Prayers to the family, from a neighbor down the street.

So sorry for your loss, he was a wonderful man.

I had Mr. Billings for science for 7th and 8th grade. He always did the coolest experiments and was a structured, no nonsense teacher. Love his class. My deepest sympathies to his family in their time of loss.

Sorry for your loss. Chet was a great man and role model for all who knew him.
