David Kirkland: Consummate Trusted Advisor, Counselor and Friend

On Thursday afternoon, September 20th, family, friends, colleagues, partners and admirers of David Kirkland gathered at Christ Church Cathedral to honor David and celebrate his life.

The service, which David planned, perfectly embodied many of the traits that we held dear in him – a strong sense of tradition, meticulous attention to detail, a healthy sense of humor, and a deep and abiding faith. The Cathedral was filled to capacity not only with David’s many current and former colleagues from Baker Botts, but also with so many others whose lives he had touched.
