Stephen A. Gothold

my sister Denise Salcido was a student of Mr. Gothold. She absolutely loved him as a teacher and choir director. When my sister passed Mr. Gothold was kind enough to speak at her funeral and shared his memories of her, our family was so grateful. He was a special man who offered so much to so many people and students who were fortunate enough to have known him. RIP sir. Frank S.

So sorry to hear of Steve's passing. We will remember all the fun times of the past, both musical and personal.

Steve was a good friend and mentor while I was a Master's student at USC while he was finishing his doctorate in the '70s. What a good human being! Deep condolences to his family.

My deepest condolences to. You and your family for the loss of your dear one, Stephen. May you find comfort by reflecting on Gods' thoughts of peace for us in Jeremiah 29:11.

Thank you Gothold family for sharing him & supporting his bliss. Sincere condolences.
