He served the citizens of Tulsa County for 28 years as a District Judge, primarily in the criminal division. He was a quiet and no-nonsense trial judge who maintained one of the most current trial dockets at the courthouse. He presided over many high-profile cases including serial killer Gary Alan Walker. In 2000, he witnessed the execution of Walker at the Oklahoma State Penitentiary at McAlester. He said he attended the execution because he felt he owed it to the jurors who tried the case and all the victims and families of the other persons Walker killed. He served on both the Trial and Appellate divisions of the Court of the Judiciary. He was a loyal and dedicated Freemason, receiving a 50-year recognition in 2010.
