We were so shocked and sad to hear of Michael’s passing. We knew him best in his role with Rochester Classical Guitar and always looked forward to chatting with him at concerts and when he’d come to the shop.
Such a wonderful, kind and fun person- he will be so missed by our community ❤️

With a heavy heart, we would like to let you know that Michael Jones, one of the RCG team members, passed away last weekend.

Michael had a big heart and a vision in connecting communities through the guitar. He joined Rochester Classical Guitar as the social media coordinator, and quickly became the graphic designer. We had long discussions about the mission of RCG, and in recent years he assumed the role of treasurer. His extensive skill set led to where Rochester Classical Guitar is today, and his radiance had always made the work we do more fun and meaningful.

He is sorely missed.

The RCG Team
