“A good lawyer, a great father and husband, a fine man. Zeke was almost fun to work against. Always had a good story about his tractor or hobby farm and had good gossip. Zeke will be missed. TJR”

Steve P Young lit a candle

“In loving memory of Esequiel Solorio, My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family during this difficult time. I have known Zeke for most of my legal career. He was a fierce adversary whom fought hard for his clients. I always enjoyed seeing him at the Board and hearing the latest from him about local attorneys and claimants he was representing. He had a certain charm and witty sense of humor. I am saddened by his passing and wish I had just one more time to catch up with Zeke.”
