Not sure what to say?

John and I met over 20 years ago in Atlanta. To this day I miss having such an intelligent, analytical, fair and kind friend. John, you set the bar high for all aspiring new friends in my now, even smaller circle of friends. Look forward to seeing you again soon.

I met John as Princeton undergraduate in 2003 when I was considering law school. He was wonderfully kind to me, and when I lost my job in early 2009 he was so helpful trying to help me find work. What a good, decent man and extraordinary attorney--I wanted to grow up to be just like him and I hope I have.

I knew him as Mr. Hamilton, my college roommate's dad. He was an unpretentious, welcoming, kind-hearted superstar. I am glad I got to know him. May he rest in peace. My condolences to the Hamiltons.
