William A. "Bill" Dollison III

One of the best teachers I ever had I was lucky to have him for Chem 51 beginning chemistry and chem 1A that gave me a very solid understanding of chemistry when I transferred to Sac State. He made chemistry simple and used the dimnsional analysis method which I used in physics and still use to this day to solve various problems. Truly outstanding.

Bill, I will always remember your kindness, your cute dog who went around with you in your car as you refilled the vending machines at Sacramento Business and Skills Center at the old Fair Grounds on Stockton Boulevard. Later, I changed jobs and there you were at Sacramento City College teaching Math and Physics. I always found you interesting to talk to and your blue eyes always sparkled when you talked about some new business endeavor and the successes of your students. I have missed you...

I am so very sad to hear about Bill. I knew him from his rental properties and he was always so nice to all his tenants. He was always very generous to us for our Christmas luncheons or charitable functions the Section 8 office was involved with. I had seen Bill this last Christmas season and he was looking so good. he will be missed very much.

I will always think of Bill when I think of SCC. Hardly a day went by without seeing him wave to me in Lillard Hall.
Scott and I send our sympathy to his family for he will be missed.

Our thoughts and prayers are with your family; may they always think of the wonderful memories and joyful times as they share such a...

You were a patient and thoughtful teacher and I will always appreciate your kind and encouraging words. Thank you so much for your dedication, Bill.

Thank you, Bill, for the great friendship and the good years together at SCC. May God bess you and your family with love, rest and peace,

Bill was a special man. Although he was not a joiner, his support of the Courtland Community organizations such as Franklin Lodge (Masons) was greatly appreciated.

Bill was a great guy. I always enjoyed his company. I can still see him in the Math Lab helping all he could with science and math. He gave freely of his time and shared his life with students and faculty. I will always remember him as a happy and caring person.
