Helen Pendleton Rumbaut

September 4, 2024

I am the former Helen Pendleton. I was sorry to hear of Judge Paddock's passing. In fact, I was just thinking of him today. My late father, Judge William B. Pendleton, replaced Paddock as Police Judge for the City Court back in March of 1959, when Paddock resigned to accept a position as assistant county attorney. Mr. Paddock was gracious to stay on the job several extra weeks in order to find a suitable replacement. My deepest condolences to all his loved ones. May the Lord Jesus give them His peace, which passes understanding.
