My daughter was asking me about memories of 5th grade in the 1970’s ( I had my kids later in life) And of course I shared the memories of my first instrument — clarinet and how Mr. Dawson was so very instrumental in may young formative years as a musician. I have been blessed to have done many things in my life but my love for music was so shaped by him. Although it has been since 2006 I just saw he passed away, the memories of your loved one never fades. Please know there are hundreds of us out here with families of our own passing down the musical traditions. I even was blessed to take my son to Blue Lake Fine Arts Camp in 2016 and oh how Mr. Dawson encouraged me to go. In this season of love here’s to you Mr. Dawson, you will forever be in my memories and those of my children!!
