I was a law student in 1974-75 at the University of Texas law school. At the time the school had no course in intellectual property law, and several of us with a background in science and engineering petitioned then Dean Page Keeton for an elective course in that discipline. We managed to get enough interested students to sign up for a course, and Coke came from Houston to be the lecturer. I was impressed with his willingness to lend his time and talents to that course, and while not all of us pursued that area of the law, it was through no fault of Coke. I remember the course as interesting and worthwhile, and helpful in learning what life as a practitioner in IP would be like. Thanks Coke; God Bless.

May your memories give you peace and comfort of your loved one. Words fall short of expressing my sorrow for the loss of your loved one. May GOD be with you all during this difficult time. 1 Thessalonians 4:14 For if we have faith that Jesus died and rose again, so too God will bring with him those who have fallen asleep in death through Jesus.

That is a great life lived. He will forever be known as Me. Wilson who called me Amalyn..so he´d get my name 1/2 right as he was not sure it was me or my twin sister Carolie. I´m glad to have known him.

I was the flower girl in Horace & Margie's wedding when I was 5! We got to see that concrete boat he was building in his garage in a rainstorm in 1971, wondering if he was a contemporary Noah... Fun-loving & risk-taker don't begin to describe him, but do point in the right direction. What a great uncle! We sure loved him..... Kay Stauffer

I met Coke Wilson only once, later in his life and was struck by his charm
