So very sorry to hear of David's passing. We worked together at Pacific Hospital and played many games of tennis together on Billie Jean King's tennis courts at Vet's Park and Griffith Park (just for the adventure I guess). He was such a quiet but fun guy to be around and I am very happy to have known him.
