  • Robert D. Ray
    ROBERT D. RAY Few names in Iowa’s 172-year history are as instantly recognizable as Robert D. Ray. He was born in Des Moines September 26, 1928 and passed away in Des Moines on July 8, 2018. In the intervening years, Robert D. Ray’s leadership touched the lives of generations of Iowans on dozens of fronts and reached global impact on several occasions. Ray grew up in the Drake neighborhood and met the love of his life and future wife, Billie Lee Hornberger, at what is now First Christian Church while they were students at Roosevelt High School. The Roosevelt High School sweethearts started dating in 1945 and were married on December 22, 1951. His life revolved around love of family, first as a son and brother, followed by his passion to be a devoted husband, dedicated father to the Ray’s three daughters and adoring grandfather to their eight grandchildren. After World War II, Ray served the U. S. Army in Japan. He graduated from Drake University with a business degree in 1952 and law degree 1954. He was a law and reading clerk in the Iowa State Senate, where he began to understand government and relish politics. Later, he built a successful practice as a trial lawyer with two brothers named Lawyer; the firm was Lawyer, Lawyer and Ray. In 1963, Ray was elected Iowa Republican State Chairman and became a member of the Republican National Committee. After heavy losses in the 1964 Goldwater debacle, Ray resolved to rebuild and the GOP elected three new Congressmen and 88 state legislators in 1966.

  • First District Court of Appeal Mourns Passing of Former Chief Judge
    First District Court of Appeal Mourns Passing of the Honorable Anne Cawthon Booth The First District Court of Appeal mourns the loss of former First District Court of Appeal Chief Judge Anne Cawthon Booth, who passed away peacefully at her home in Tallahassee on June 14, 2021, at the age of 87. Judge Booth was appointed to the First District Court of Appeal by Governor Reubin Askew in 1978 and served there until her retirement in 2005. From 1985–1987, she served as Chief Judge. Judge Booth was the first woman to be appointed to an appellate court in Florida, and the first woman to serve as Chief Judge. Judge Booth earned her law degree with high honors from the University of Florida, where she graduated at the top of her class and was inducted into the Order of the Coif. She was the only female student in her class. Following graduation, she clerked for Chief Justice Joseph A. Boyd Jr. and Justice Millard Caldwell of the Florida Supreme Court. She then practiced as a civil litigator with her husband, Edgar Charles Booth, before being appointed to the First District Court of Appeal. “With a brilliant legal mind and indomitable spirit, Judge Booth was a trailblazer for women in law,” said Chief Judge Stephanie Ray. “We honor her commitment to justice and her extraordinary life and legacy.” The Court extends its deepest sympathy and condolences to Judge Booth’s family and friends. For more information on Judge Booth’s remarkable life, view her obituary here. .

  • District III News Special Edition Layout 1
    From the Desk of Commissioner Bobby B. DuBose DISTRICT III NEWS SPECIAL EDITION JUNE 2012 Dear District III, The City of Fort Lauderdale has lost a trailblazing pioneer in the person of Dr. Calvin H. Shirley. This year Dr. Shirley was celebrated as the City of Fort Lauderdale’s Honored Founder and was the special guest at the annual Walk Through History event that commemorated the medical history in the Northwest. Calvin H. Shirley was in a league that many aspire to. He walked tall and humbly yet left a mark that is undeniably etched in the framework and foundation of Fort Lauderdale. Dr. Calvin Hylton Shirley graduated from Booker T. Washington High School at the age of sixteen in Pensacola, Florida and matriculated at Florida A & M Uni- versity in Tallahassee, Florida where he obtained his pre-medical education ma- joring in Biology and a double minor in Chemistry and Education. During these undergraduate years, he played trumpet in the College Marching Band, Sym- phonic, Jazz and Dance Orchestras. This afforded him a full music scholarship which helped to pay his tuition and living expenses. Drafted into the United States Navy after the completion of his college career and during World War II, Dr. Shirley served his country as a Hospital Corpsman in the Asiatic Pacific Theater of War. Following an Honorable Discharge from the Navy, Dr. Shirley enrolled in the Boston College of Physicians & Surgeons in Boston, Massachusetts graduating Summa Cum Laude. He completed his Internship and Residency in Obstetrics & Gynecology at Boston City Hospital and returned to Florida in 1949 to commence his medical practice.
