Retired Justice David H. Souter, who served on the Supreme Court from 1990-2009, died at age 85 on Thursday, the court announced on Friday.

The Supreme Court said that he died peacefully at his home.

Chief Justice John G. Roberts joined the Supreme Court in 2005, four years before Souter's retirement.

“Justice David Souter served our Court with great distinction for nearly twenty years. He brought uncommon wisdom and kindness to a lifetime of public service," Roberts said. After retiring to his beloved New Hampshire in 2009, he continued to render significant service to our branch by sitting regularly on the Court of Appeals for the First Circuit for more than a decade. He will be greatly missed.”
