I’m sorry to hear of your loss, particularly the loss of someone who has given so much to others during his lifetime. I had the privilege of knowing “Mr. Cotton” during my education at PACI in the early nineties. While I didn’t take grade nine music, (I was trained in cadets) Mr. Cotton enthusiastically invited me into his band the following year. Participating in his music program was a highlight of my high school experience, and performing music is still an important aspect of my life. I can directly attribute Mr. Cotton’s support of my musical endeavours as a key component of my life and something I will pass down to my son. Mr. Cotton’s teaching style was the perfect balance of encouragement, discipline, and compassion. For me, and many other of his students, he will be missed, but certainly not forgotten. Sincerest condolences, Paul Hookham Edmonton (Part-time Jazz Drummer)
