Justice David Souter´s lifetime of service stands as an inspiring testament to integrity, humility, and a deep commitment to the principles of justice. His thoughtful approach and quiet dignity left a lasting impact not only on the law, but on all who value fairness and compassion. May his memory serve as a reminder of the difference one person can make through dedication and conscience. My heartfelt condolences to his family, friends, and all those who were touched by his remarkable legacy.

RIP Justice Souter. I used to run into you at Shaws supermarket all the time in Concord. I also lived in Weare.

RIP Justice David Souter from a group of admirers in Texas. Your decisions and reasonings were not always in agreement with our politics and jurisprudence (from the attorneys), but your sterling intelligence, friendly demeanor, and defending your reasoning have left many memories to admire. Requieam aeternam, Dnna est, et Lux Perpetua, Et Lucet ais.

So sad to hear of David’s passing. I had the privilege of spending some time with him over the years and his correspondence with my mother was wonderful. The three things I remember most about him was that he was sitting with my grandfather (John Adams) in the nursing home on the day he was confirmed, he always wrote longhand such that any letter from him was deeply personal, and he referred to the capitol building as his barber shop since that is where he got his hair cut.

When my late mother, Karen Moss, retired after many years as the First Circuit Law Librarian, Justice Souter mailed her a heartfelt hand written note. Our family treasures it.
