DALLAS, TEXAS – Laura and I are saddened by the passing of former Supreme Court Justice Sandra Day O’Connor. It was fitting that Sandra became the first female appointed to our highest court, because she was a pioneer who lived by the code of the west. She was determined and honest, modest and considerate, dependable and self-reliant. She was also fun and funny, with a wonderful sense of humor. Justice O’Connor was thorough and thoughtful in her opinions, and Laura and I are grateful for her principled service. We send our condolences to her family and friends.
