Dear Sonya, thank you for giving our daughter the gift of playing the guitar.
You were always such a loving kind friendly tutor and we loved knowing you over the few years of lessons you gave her. You were a true gem in our lives, and I suspect in many other young peoples lives too.
Our condolences to your family, they will be missing you dearly. Rest in peace lovely lady.
