Samuel WILSON

I had the distinct honor and pleasure of meeting Dean Wilson while attending the University of Cincinnati's Law School in the fall of 1980. I was attending as a "Special Student" under the invitation of Professor Kenneth Aplin while I was a Teaching Assistant in the UC Criminal Justice Department. Through this class I met Dean Wilson on many occasions and by total coincidence I met his son Andrew on campus in a totally unrelated activity vis-à-vis the law school. As this friendship grew...

Samuel Wilson was my first year Civil Procedure professor. He was nice to us, something that seemed rare at that time (the late 1970s) in teaching law. I later was fortunate to become friends with one of his children. His legacy of kindness lives on through his family.

Dean Wilson was a truly wonderful human being. He will be missed.
