I remember Joris Naiman. He was a very smart person who also had a great sense of humor. The fates took him away too soon. My condolences to his family and friends.

I knew Joris when he was a student in our LL.M. program at Lewis and Clark, and I remember him fondly. He always had a smile, was smart and insightful, and was committed to the environment. I enjoyed hearing about his many accomplishments at FWS. We've lost a treasured alum and advocate for a better planet.

Rest in peace, friend. Bill and Gloria Champion

All the Walkey children grew up with Joris as the model of the genius. As I got to know him a little as an adult, he was just such a nice guy. Jonathan Walkey

I am so sorry to hear of Joris passing. He was such an inspiration to us Wildlife Inspectors trying to enforce the laws. Without him, we could not have done it.

I enjoyed many a flight with Joris in his or my small plane--we had nearly identical models. I learned much from him and will miss our conversations and his gentle humor.

I was so very sorry to hear of Joris's passing. He was such a great attorney and was really thoughtful and diligent in his approach to law. I was a wildlife inspector in New York in the 90's and Joris was so awesome to work with. I saw him within the last couple of years in the Washington Office of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and said hello to him in the elevator. He STILL remembered a tarantula case I did in NY. He is awesome...I am lucky I got to know him. Again, my sincerest condolences.
