Judge Eugene Strassburger “did what was right always,” said Pennsylvania Supreme Court Chief Justice Max Baer.
“His writing was brilliant and his thinking was brilliant, and yet he was very much a man of the people,” Baer told the Chronicle. “He was a supporter of women, back when it wasn’t popular. Gene was a fierce supporter of them and a fierce supporter of the LGBT community.
“I hold him in the greatest regard,” Baer added. “I think I’m good at what I do, and Gene is part of the reason for that.”
