Jon was a Past President of the North Redondo Beach Rotary Club. He helped me out many times, at various fund raisers, for Juvenile Diabetes. He was a giver, not a taker. A fine Lawyer, a good person, great piano player, lover of fine wines, and a man who had an eye for the ladies, and they for him. We will all miss you Jon.

Allan and I have fond memories of our old wine tasting group, which Jon spear-headed and organized, and of running into Jon at the LMU Wine Classic each year. His knowledge and passion for wine was amazing. Jon, you were a wonderful man, and we will miss you.

Dear Jon,
Your death came as quite a shock to me as I just saw you a few days before. I'll miss going to your office to see you and your clients. You were not only smart but behind that was a very sensitive and caring man. I hope your next world is full of peace and beautiful music (and not digital!). Rest.
