Chandler and 16-year-old Johnathon Crow were heartbroken when their dad passed away last year.
Young Johnny took the tragedy especially hard, but has always used music as a way to escape his sadness. Johnny’s dad was always a huge fan of his music, so in spite of the difficult time Johnny kept playing guitar to keep the connection alive.
On his 16th birthday, older sister Chandler took Johnny to his regular guitar lesson… but this time there was a surprise waiting that he never saw coming.
Check out the first hand account, written by Chandler, below.
About a month ago I dropped Johnny off at his guitar lesson, and one of the amazing instructors told me there was something I should see. When she showed me, I just dropped to my knees, I just couldn’t believe it.
But I had to keep it a secret until his birthday.
So this morning I woke up and picked up my brother from school and blindfolded him.
Drove him to the music center and this is the outcome. A big thank you goes out to the music center, who helped keep my dad’s dream alive.
Happy 16th birthday buddy. Dad is so proud of you. I love you more than words can describe.
Check out the emotional surprise below.
And him receiving it. ��
