I really got to know David while at hockey practices. We talked mostly about music and harp specifically for his orchestra. He was always so upbeat and positive.

Me along with my siblings were lucky enough to have him as a teacher and a mentor. His passion for music inspired my family, along with so many others and will never be forgotten. Keeping your family in our prayers.

All three of my children were blessed to be students of Mr. Sowerby. They always had wonderful stories to tell about him. I thank God for him, and the gift of music he blessed them with. It is clear to me that he taught them more than music. The Kittredge´s offer heartfelt condolences. He will be missed.
