David was my Attorney in Whittier many years ago, I also met his daughter Sonny. He helped me with my child custody case in the Los Angeles court. The day of my court case I picked him up from the hospital. He was so adamant about going to court. He had a heart of gold. He spoke to me about his daughters. He treated me like a daughter. He was so kind and loving! He was like the father I never had. I will forever carry him in my heart. RIP
