Dooley worked for the State of Louisiana DOTD for 30 years until his retirement and then went on to work for Wackenhut Security at the BCBS building in Baton Rouge.

Dooley was known for his jokes and the way he kept everyone laughing. Above all, he was an amazing friend, who will be remembered by his special way of checking on people in their time of need. He will be greatly missed by all who knew and loved him. He is survived by wife of 54 years, Patricia Thevenet Scott; sons, Charles “Chuck” Scott (Shantelle) and Joel A.
