I searched Professor Terrell to let him know my husband, Bill LaVanier, passed away, and found that he had preceded him.  Bill got his law degree at South Texas and worked for Prof. Terrell while there.  His time spent doing that was his most cherished memory of law school. They're together again.

I met Buford about 50 years ago in Lubbock.  He helped with some legal matters and worked miracles with IRS. I loved his wit and wisdom.

This is very sad news. Buford enlightened me in many ways concerning drug law. One of his analyses was the starting of a long piece I wrote on my drug blawg. I'm sorry I didn't have a closer relationship w him while he was with us.

Buford was a good friend and a champion for peace and justice. The world is just a little less without Buford in him any longer. I will miss you Buford.

It's been almost 20 years since Buford, Al Robison and I began to  host a small TV show, Drugs,  Crime and Politics,  with the help of many DPFT volunteers.

Over the years Buford often educated us and presented interesting points of view.  From time to time Buford and I had  disagreements and differing  perspectives, yet in all those years there was  never a harsh word spoken between us.
 
I will deeply miss his constant support, wisdom and dry wit.

Over the past year or more he was philosophical about the coming end and growing weary of fighting the pain. Buford was not a religious man but he  was full of decency, compassion and a commitment to  justice. He left knowing he had touched many of us and that he had fought the good fight until the end.

I always read Buford's DPFT posts eagerly.  He brought in important topics and added relevant, insightful, thorough analysis wrapped in his very entertaining style. Broccoli forever!

Buford Terrell became my friend through Drug Policy Forum of Texas. I liked and admired him. He will be missed by many.

I don't think I ever met Buford in person, but heard from him often on email. He will be missed. I am so sorry for your loss.

I am so very sorry for your loss.  Professor Terrell was a phenomenal teacher and a wonderful wit.  His instruction molded generations of lawyers and we are forever in his debt.

Great professor. Brilliant mind.  Great teacher.

So sorry for your loss. Professor Terrell was one of my favorite professors in law school.

Fran, so sorry for your loss.  Thoughts and prayers are with you.
