David will be greatly missed by those he left behind. My thoughts and prayers are with all of those who are affected by this loss.
Love to all, especially Sean. Mom
David and I were business associates and combatants at tennis for over thirty years. Up until his retirement, and mine, our getting together several times a week was a ritual. He was dedicated to his work and any activity he was engaged in. I watched Sean grow during his adolescent years to become a exceptional young man for which his parents are duly proud.
David and I stayed in contact over the years and argued politics as he was always firm in his convictions. I truly will miss David. He was a great contributor to the success of the AJC in its time of Growth. Rest in peace, David
Sean, I am so sorry for the passing of your father. You were such a wonderful son to be with him and taking such great care of him during his illness. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family during this difficult time.

Thank you so much for the kind words.
