A Little League teammate, a high school classmate, a college roommate, a first love — every so often someone shows up on the doorstep of your life destined to never be forgotten. Wherever you go, whatever you do, a piece of them is always tagging along for the ride.
For Peter Foor, a retired Superior Court judge in Solano County, California, life's journey took him to Vietnam, where he was a decorated Marine lieutenant, and to Alaska, where he was a commercial fisherman. He attended law school, worked in private practice as well as a deputy district attorney, and spent 13 years trying a host of high profile cases for notorious clients as a public defender, before being appointed to the bench and presiding for more than 20 years, 1997-2018.
