Dan and Clinton,
There will always be a special place for Adele's memory in this house and in our hearts. She was my best friend while we lived in Houston. Then, as a judge, she was my daughter Cristina's mentor and exemple.In this family we feel so fortunate to have had her in our lives. 
May her memory bring pease to you both

Dear Dan,
I just found out Adele had died last year. I am deeply saddened by her death. Even though we were not in touch, she was my friend, and I was always proud of her friendship and grateful for her guidance to my daughter Cristina. She was an extraordinary woman in every aspect and a unique human being. I am sure she was received in heaven with the music she so loved.
Please, accept my belated condolences .
Maria Owen

Adele will be missed and my deepest sympathies go out to Dan and Clinton.  She was a mentor, friend and shining light in my life.  She was an inspiration and her good works, kind countenance and lovely demeanor will continue to inspire those of us who were fortunate to know her.  

My condolences to the family. May God fulfill his promise of binding up the brokenhearted. Isa 61:1

Sue and I send our deepest thoughts and prayers to Dan, Cintron and their family for this terrible loss The Tottenhams

I was so saddened to hear of Adele's passing.  As Chief Justice of the 14th Court of Appeals, she represented the State of Texas with all the grace and dignity imaginable.  I will always remember her as my friend and true scholar of the law.  My sincere condolences to Dan and family.

Dear Mr. Hedges:
I am so very sorry for the loss of your wife. Michael and I live in your midrise and have enjoyed seeing you and Mrs. Hedges, and your beautiful Huskie. Although I did not have the opportunity to get to know Mrs. Hedges well as we just moved here in August, I always was happy to see her in the lobby, in the elevator and was immediately struck by her calm, pleasant, and elegant demeanor. We traded fun stories on our elevator rides together about our dogs - we have the big, black lab. I am even more impressed now that I know she was such an esteemed judge and had such an amazing, trailblazing career. Impressed with her accomplishments, yes; but, even more impressed with her down-to-earth warmth and kindness. Will miss her.  Prayers and peace to you and your family.  

Dear Family and Friends,

Please accept my sincere condolences for the loss of your dear loved one.  May you find comfort, peace and hope in the weeks and months ahead. 1 Cor. 1:3-4 and 1 Cor. 15:26.

With our great sympathy and condolences to Dan and the family and all who knew and loved Adele Hedges. May your memories of her life among us sustain each of you as you bear your loss. With sincere wishes for peace and acceptance,

To the Hedges family, we offer our deepest sympathy on your loss.  Please accept our heartfelt condolences.  As you take each day one step at a time and hold on to the loving memories of your loved one, may God grant you strength to see each day through (2 Corinthians 4:7).--ERJ

Geraldine Adele (Oglesbee) Hedges was a very special person in my life. She was only six when I was born, but my mother gave her the privilege of naming me. She named me Mary, after her Aunt Mary whom she loved dearly and Adele, after herself.
She was like an older sister to me and I loved every minute I spent with her. As I grew older I was so proud of all the honors she received through high school, college, and as an adult.
I have so many sweet, wonderful memories of her and her mom and dad.
My thoughts and prayers will be with the family in the days and months to come.

Remembering my friend and colleague Chief Justice Adele Hedges.  She  served our State with poise and dignity.  My condolences to Dan and Clinton.  

Adele, rest in peace.     

My heartfelt condolences to our loss of a friend and colleague. I enjoyed our lunches together at Menil and will carry the memories forever. Rg

Adele was a fascinating person, always curious about everything. Knowing her for four decades, I always enjoyed our encounters. I could learn so many new things. She brought a kindness and humility to judging, too. It can truly be said that she made a positive impact on the world. And, of course, she is and will continue to be sorely missed.

Adeles spirit has always inspired meto be brave, to do good, and to find and appreciate beauty. Her vision and guidance manifested greatness in many realms in our world, and for all of that I am grateful. I wish strength and peace for the family and friends of this amazing person.

Dan and Clinton, So sorry to hear about your loss.  What a grand and gracious lady she was.
Chris and Nancy Fry

Crystal and I are saddened on hearing of the passing of Adele.  Our thoughts and prayers are with you.

Dan and Clinton, I am very sorry for your loss today. It has been a privilege being friends with Clinton over the years, and your family has always been very kind. Judge Hedges was an honorable person, lawyer and Judge. I am very sorry for your loss.

I consider myself blessed to have had the benefit of Judge Hedges' advice, friendship and guidance my first year out of law school serving as a briefing attorney on the First.  Those days were the greatest of memories.  Judge Hedges always carried herself with a dignity and easiness that are not easily matched in one person.  As I grew in age and practice, whenever our paths crossed I could count on a hug and a smile.  I will miss it terribly.  My thoughts and prayers are with her family.

Dear Dan:  I was shocked and saddened to hear of Adele's untimely death.  She was a brilliant lawyer, an asset to the judiciary,  a lovely woman, and a wonderful and decent person.  Her contributions to our profession and to the jurisprudence of Texas will light the way for many years to come.  I was proud to be her friend and grieve that she left us too soon.  Please accept my sincere sympathy.  May her soul rest in peace, and may light perpetual shine upon her.  Chief Justice (Ret.) Marilyn Aboussie

I remember Judge Hedges well.  As a fellow Orangeite, she reached out to me when I first moved to Houston, and we became friends.  (She even taught me some jewelry-making.)  She was a very smart, very kind person who was a fair and good judge.  R.I.P.
