Finis Cowan Jr.

As a neighborhood child who came over to the Cowan home a lot, I remember Mr. Cowan. I am thankful for being around them as much as possible. I am so sorry for your loss and I do pray you will have peace that passes understanding, in Jesus the Christ. Thank you for letting me come over. Sharon S.N.

Finis was the finest attorney I had the good fortune to work with. He was awe-inspiring in his knowledge, integrity, and professionalism. Working briefly with him is one of the highlights of my career.

Finis was one of finest gentlemen I have ever met. I will forever remember his kindnesses to me as a young attorney. Much love to all his family.

Finis was a man of total integrity and fairness. It was an honor and a privilege to practice law with him at Baker & Botts for so many years. Retired Judge Bill Burke

The best, smarest, fairest judge I ever knew.

I loved Mr. Cowan like my own Father. He was a hero to me. Sending my love to all of you. So sad that I cannot be with you during this difficult time. Love, Mary Lou

In 56 years of trial practice, I have never appeared before a smarter or more compassionate judge. Nor have I ever heard anyone say anything critical of this great man.
