An Incredible Story About My Guitar Lesson Videos and a U.S. Soldier in Iraq (2009)

Just re-posting a video I made in 2009; a message I received from one of my viewers that was truly inspiring; here it is:
'Bob, thank you so much for taking the time to share your knowledge with us. Decades ago, as a young teenager, the desire to play the guitar was very strong. There was no money for lessons, so I sought ever other means to teach myself. Over time, I was able to play along with other people, but was always limited because of my basic lack of strumming, picking and scales. On November 25th, 1986, my only child, Joshua S. Harmon, was born. He inherited my passion for music, I showed him the basic chords, and taught him his first song; 'The House of the Rising Sun'. which is the first song I learned. With good fortune, Joshua was able to take lessons. and I drove home the importance of basics. By the time Joshua was 14, he was very accomplished. His ability to learn music was amazing. He seemed to see music, as much as hearing it. On August 22nd, 2007, my son , Cpl. Joshua S. Harmon, was killed in a helicopter crash when returning from a mission in northern Iraq. When Joshua left fo Iraq I sent him a guitar to keep his spirit alive and as a reminder of home. Joshua knew that I had not played my guitar for many years. and told me it was time I dusted it off. And he jokingly said that when he returned home he could teach me songs that I thought I knew how to play. So I went out, got a new set of strings, and began to reacquaint myself with the guitar. Less than a month later I lost my son, and thought I would never touch a guitar again. As what was shared with others, I wish to share with you. Never think the work you do is not important. It has inspired me to continue with my music, and I cannot thank you enough....R. Harmon, Cleveland Ohio."
