“Such a great loss of a great man. We worked on opposite sides when he was handing criminal defense cases, but I truly enjoyed getting to know him and have always had the utmost respect for him. I remember most his joyful personality and his genuine spirit. I want to extend my condolences to all of his family. He will truly be missed.”
