It’s been a while since we’ve talked about Desi’s love for music and his talent! He’s been studying the trumpet for quite some time now and has been playing in his school’s band, even having been given some solos in various performances.
His latest achievement has been joining his school’s Marching Band! Here’s a photo of him having a great time. Lots of time and effort has gone into rehearsing and then performing at High School football games. Events coming up include several state competitions during this October and November — one at NAU in particular!
Let’s wish Desi good luck in the competitions, and continued success in his musical journey!
As many of you know, Desi has been on dialysis since being diagnosed with kidney failure. We’ve partnered with COTA to raise funds for transplant-related expenses. Please consider a donation to this worthy cause by visiting this link: Thank you!
