Melvin Scott Dickson

You can add two more great grand daughters (Madalyn and Alessandra Rhine) to his legacy. Many thanks for all the memories!

He was a great person and teacher. The only person who could make me understand math.

On behalf of the thousands of students who were blessed to have him as our teacher - thank you, you were THE BEST. Your gift touched us all. Thoughts and prayers to your family.

Mr Dickson was a wonderful individual who treated every one with respect. His quite demeanor was a real asset in the way he handled his students. One of my favorite teachers. R.I.P. teacher, soldier, family man and leader.

Mr Dickson: a fine man, scholar and exceptional teacher. The only time I ever grasped mathematics was when he taught me. Rest in Peace brave soldier and may God bless your soul.

We were fortunate to have him as a teacher early in his career at Marlette High School.

I am so sorry to hear of your dad's passing. Being an eariler family friend from the 60s, I not only knew him as a teacher but my friends father. He was a fantastic teacher. I just wish I'd been a better student. I happened to go back for a reunion a number of years ago and saw him walking in the halway. That made my visit all the worthwhile. He meant that much to me. To the entire Dickson Family, may you have a wonderful celebration of his life.

We had the privilege of being their neighbors for 17 years! They were a very active and fun couple. Mel had a dry sense of humor! They went on daily walks and till about a few months ago would take their walks in Briarwood Mall. They loved to sit and people watch. They attended many lectures.
His students adored him. Many came to visit them. Thanks to Mark and the wonderful caregivers they continued to live in their condo on the lake! They appreciated that so much!
He will be...
