Not sure what to say?

A wonderful man, who handled his life and office honestly, fairly, and completely ethically. It was always a delight to appear in front of him. He was unfailingly courteous. And in later years, I always enjoyed running into him at parties and bar events. Just delightful. I will miss him.

Our sincere condolences.

Judge Armando V. Rodriguez J.P. 6-2 (Ret.)

Judge Angela D. Rodriguez J.P. 6-2

A great judge, and a better friend. I will miss him. Condolences to the family.

I am saddened to read of Judge Duggan's passing. He was a great Judge and a real gentleman! I would always smile when I would appear in court and he was the visiting judge. I knew he was going to treat me and most importantly, my client, with dignity and respect. My clients' cases always came out well with Judge Duggan.

Rest in peace, Your Honor. I will pray for you and your family.

I am so sorry for your loss. My favorite memory of Judge Duggan was when I was in New York at the airport. He saw me and came over and gave me a big Texas hug and hello. He was there visiting West Point with his son. My friends were kind of upset that a stranger would approach me like that, remember this was New York, but then my husband told them who he was and they all laughed that even 2000 miles from home I knew someone. It was my honor to have worked for the Judge. I am sure he is...

My sincere condolences to the family. I am sorry for your tremendous loss. Jude 1: 20, 21

Annette & family,

We are saddened at the loss of Lee, and will miss him, especially at our family gatherings. He always had a smile, cheerful disposition and a warm welcome. I enjoyed his stories, even if I did hear them more than once! Of course, my favorite memory will always be the wedding he performed for Lauren and Matt. What a remarkable man, he served the State of Texas with integrity, and you have every reason to be proud. We will be praying for comfort and grace during this...

He was an important part of our family and he will be deeply missed.

I had the privilege of serving as a prosecutor in Judge Duggan's court in 1980. He also attended my wedding. I learned much from him that has served me well. I have tried to emulate his courtesy and demeanor during my tenure as a jurist. Judge Duggan was a fine and honorable gentleman. There aren't enough like him in this hurting world.
Prayers for his family.
