Nashville lawyer C. Raymond Myers Jr. died Aug. 14. A graduate of the University of Memphis Cecil C. Humphreys School of Law, he earned his law license in 1983 and according to his family, “cared deeply about his clients and was known to accept payment in firewood.” Myers served as president of the Williamson County Bar Association, did significant pro bono work and supported marginalized communities. He and his wife hosted 13 exchange students over the years and loved taking their children and visiting students on camping trips. In recent years, he hiked the full Appalachian Trail and John Muir Trail. The family says it will announce details of a memorial service soon. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Appalachian Trail Conservancy or the First Church of Christ Scientist in Nashville.
