Staughton Lynd

Dear Alice and family,
It was my pleasure and honor to work with Staughton and Alice on the SuperMax litigation and to know that the men in prison there had true advocates fighting for them. I remember singing "We Shall Overcome" on the range during a client meeting knowing that many of our guys probably never heard that song or thought it would apply to them. Staughton's dedication to those put down, ignored, tormented was inspirational. My family will plant a pin oak on our land in his honor and memory because it is a strong, honorable, peaceful tree that serves others and refuses to give up its leaves in the harshest of winters. Please know that you all are in our thoughts and memories.
To have lived an impactful life is the greatest goal a person can have and Staughton certainly did that.
