AFuersteHenry: I updated the page to reflect Bill's death and a couple details from his obituary.

FUERSTE, William. (Duluth, MN, Jan. 25, 1923- Dubuque, IA, March 25, 2011). Attorney. An eloquent lawyer known for quoting Oliver Wendell Holmes and William Shakespeare in court, Fuerste's legal specialty was civil litigation. In 1953 he first practiced law in Dubuque with Robert Clewell, becoming a partner in the firm of Clewell, Cooney and Fuerste. In 1965 he formed a partnership with Allan Carew that developed by 1989 into the firm of Fuerste, Carew, Coyle, Juergens and Sudmeier.

Fuerste served as a member of the Dubuque Symphony Board and Rotarians. A member of the American, Iowa State, and Dubuque County bar associations, he was listed in ''The Best Lawyers in America'' from 1983 until his retirement.
