I was saddened last night to learn of Susan Grisanti's death. I was one of her students at one time. She was always patient and full of encouragement. My talent is pretty limited but she encouraged me to play guitar for the pure pleasure of it. She was also very kind to my wife's grandson, and helped him become a musician. Susan loved guitar, and all varieties of guitar music, from high classical to folk, to blues, to rock and metal. She also taught keyboards. She was an excellent teacher and a wonderful human being. She will be missed. She was part of Lubbock's unique musical culture.
Please post your memory of Susan on her memorial site: www.SusanGrisanti.com - where it will be seen by many people for a long time. Thank you.
ReplyDeleteShe thought that our son had extraordinary talent, and went WAY out of her way to support him. I remember once that she drove all the way over to New Mexico to play at a show with him in a little cafe. She was a real giver. RIP Susan.
