Ind. Courts - Memorial service for federal Judge Jesse E. Eschbach held Thursday

The Fort Wayne Journal Gazette has a story by Sara Eaton today headlined "Judging Eschbach: ‘The whole package’". Some quotes:

His courtroom demeanor is something attorneys who practiced before him won’t forget.

It became the theme of a memorial service Thursday in U.S. District Court where nearly 80 legal professionals gathered to remember and celebrate the life of the late retired Judge Jesse E. Eschbach.

Eschbach died Oct. 25, one day before he would have turned 85 years old.

He retired from the bench of the 7th Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals in 2000 after serving as a judge for 38 years.
