"I liked being around him. I was a big sports nut, but he wasn't. I helped out at his office because it was a good way for us to spend time together. I loved him more than words can express."
In hopes of catching his father's killer, Jonathan and his family have created a profile on the popular social networking web site MySpace. They hope someone might recognize something about the figure in the grainy surveillance footage. Also on the web site is a heartfelt message Jonathan wrote about his dad:

"In the Bible David and Jonathan were the best of friends. I was named Jonathan because of this. My father was my absolute best friend. I love him more than words can ever express, the word love does not even begin to tell the tale of our relationship. We have chemistry and a bond that was very unique. He understood me far greater than anybody else ever has or will be able to...
"This whole tragedy has left a tremendous emptiness inside of me. It makes me very sad to think that I will never get to grab another sandwich together after a Saturday at the office, that he will never get to meet the children we have that he was so looking forward to meeting, that he will never see my sister get married, that the next political election I will not have my friend to share my thoughts with and that I will never get to see him treat another one of his of patients. He is and always will be my best friend. He is who I have always looked up to in life. All of my best qualities were instilled on me by him. I am and always will be proud to be his son. I take great pride in knowing what a wonderful influence he was and always will be to me."

While his heart may be broken, Jonathan did have one uplifting thing to say to me before we ended or telephone conversation: "There is no such thing as perfect crime," he said. "I am very confident this person will be caught."
The Cornbleet family is offering a $25,000 reward for information leading to the arrest and conviction of the person responsible for David's murder. Anyone with information is asked to call the Chicago Police Department at (312) 746-8252.
