Laurie and I spent many days together over the last ten years hitting tennis balls and discussing Wightman politics. He generously shared legal advice and relentlessly pursued his beliefs and the truth. Our family and friends are so upset about his passing. His passion for tennis will always be remembered. We wish Peter, Evelyn and other family members our warmest thoughts as they deal with a difficult loss.
