ing standards throughout the
State of Texas for all municipal
courts. He traveled statewide
conducting training seminars
and offering his expertise in
professionalizing all municipal
courts. He retired in 1989 and
continued to follow the careers
of many of the young men that
he tutored and stayed in touch
with.
Throughout his life the
Judge had a second love in
Lions International. Near and
very dear to his heart is the
Texas Lions Crippled
Childrens Camp in Kerrville,
Texas. Being a double
amputee himself he understood
the childrens needs for love
and support for their handicaps
and how it could affect them.
He worked tirelessly for these
kids and remained dedicated to
them till the end. The words
“WE SERVE” are two words
that he took to heart. He
received many recognized, dis-
tinguished, prestigious awards
through Lions International
and from his own peers (i.e.
Melvin Jones, Jack Wiech
Fellow). He was very proud to
tell anyone that he had the
opportunity to personally meet
Helen Keller in 1958 at the
Lions Convention in Dallas,
Texas. Her words of encour-
agement and steadfast fortitude
