*By Daily Press staff*

Astoria Quality Senior Living has announced the dedication of its new wing to the memory of the late Judge David Korman this week. Judge Korman, father of Santa Monica resident Laurie Korman, was a well-known and much loved juvenile court judge who devoted his life to the children of Los Angeles.

Sophia Rickberg and Inna Levin, the owners of Astoria, have created an intimate residential care home for dementia suffers, managed from a Jewish point of view. They provide a home away from home, in a secure and loving atmosphere, for people afflicted with dementia. Astoria Quality Senior Living is located at 8041 Blackburn Ave. in Los Angeles.
