My deepest sympathy to Vanessa's family. She was the soul of the courthouse. Vanessa spoke the truth as she knew it to everyone, judges and all the rest of us. I had the pleasure of attending her wedding, her retirement and other special events. She was my friend and like all her family and friends, I will miss her.

To the family of Vanessa my sincere condolences. I knew Vanessa for many years and considered her a strong and engaged woman. Always spoke her mind but with genuine compassion and conviction. Vanessa was there for me when my Mom passed and I will always remember her unselfish contribution.

To the Coates and Marshall Families,
I did not know Vanessa, but I knew her father Joseph, brother Sylvester, and sister Vicky. From the comments that have been written it appears that Vanessa was a very nice and loving individual. Sounds like a generational blessing of nice people as I remember also her father Joseph, brother Sylvester, and sister Vicky were very nice as well. May the God of all comfort continue to comfort and keep the family as they walk this journey.
