Emily Putnam Link

Emily was an enthusiastic member of our online clarinet community. She played clarinet beautifully, and really supported other members of the community. She is missed!

Emily, I only knew you for a short time, but you made a profound effect on me and I admired your energy and enthusiasm. Your commitment to music was so inspiring and your kindness was deeply felt.
