“There are no words I can use to describe how much you mean to me, from year one I have loved the way you dance and sing around the room, how much you care and love music…you inspire me to follow music….I want you to know you enhance my life and I know everyone says they love you, but I am saying this from the crevasses of my soul.”

“I credit who I am as a musician today to you. As a growing child you were my mentor – a rainbow of inspiration – I have learnt so much from you! …. I (went) to school with people that have had good musical experiences….but mine was insurmountable. You are example of superior musicianship to me. Your infectious love and excitement for music has shaped who I am.”
