TALLADEGA COUNTY — Talladega County Circuit Judge Julian King announced Tuesday flags in front of the judicial building will fly at half staff today through Friday to honor the memories of Betty Love and Ralph Gaines, attorneys who practiced law in the county for many years. Both passed away this week.

Of Love, King said, “She was the original pioneer for female attorneys in Talladega County. She broke into a male dominated profession and led the way for many other females to follow her lead into this profession. She had great passion and drive in representing her many clients. Most importantly, she was instrumental in promoting the Alabama Teen Challenge Program in this county. That program is one of the best for drug and alcohol treatment, and Betty understood the necessity of treating the problems of addiction to break the cycle of criminal activity. She regularly appeared before me with defendants seeking alcohol or drug treatment, and in the majority of those cases, she was not even the attorney of record. She was receiving no monetary compensation for standing up there with those people. She did it for humanitarian purposes, with the hope of an individual turning their life around and becoming a productive member of society. The legal community will miss her.”
