"We will fondly remember
Justice McMorrow and always cherish the privilege of having worked with her.
Being the first woman on the Court and to serve as Chief Justice, she was an
inspiration to all women in the law in Illinois. But through her courage,
perseverance, wisdom, and character, she was a role model for all lawyers,
regardless of gender. Her legacy looms large over the Illinois legal system,
evidenced by the fact we are the first court to include three women.
"Justice McMorrow was top-tier.
She was devoted to the law and justice; but was always collegial and
good-humored. We will all miss her grace, elegance and style. Most of all, we
shall miss her."
