In memoriam of Judge Jules D. Edwards, III
1957 – 2024


Statement by Judge Douglas J. Saloom - “The passing of Judge Edwards this past evening closes a chapter written by a remarkable person, whose life and career were dedicated to his family, his faith, his profession, and most preciously his country and community. His passing leaves us, his friends, staff and colleagues, with a challenge to carry forward those principles he so passionately shared with all he touched.”

Statement by Marshal Reggie Thomas - “He paved the way for so many and was a true friend to me. Judge Edwards’ career speaks for itself — he loved his work, his family, and his country and he served honorably. We were fortunate enough to have him here as City Judge and we will remember him in his court. He was a true mentor to me and many and is someone that will truly be missed.”

Statement by Kelly Mouisset, Clerk of Court - “Judge Edwards was one of the most amazing judges that I have ever had the pleasure to serve alongside. He was a man of integrity with such a strong faith. His absence will be felt by all who knew him.”
