深切缅怀

In Memory

Preston Thompson  (1956.5.2—2019.4.11)

 

We, at Thompson Guitars, are very saddened to let all of you know that Preston Thompson passed away April 11th after struggling with health issues over the last 9 months.  We are one small family here in Sisters Oregon, and along with his wife Julie and daughter Piper, we appreciate all of the support we have received while Preston has been ill.

Thompson Guitars的全体同仁非常遗憾告诉大家,Preston Thompson先生在经历了九个月病痛的困扰后,于4月11日过世。Thompson Guitars吉他品牌位于俄勒冈州西斯特斯,所有伙伴亲如一家。我们与Preston先生的妻子Julie及女儿Piper一道,感谢所有人在Preston生病期间所给与的支持与关爱。

Preston led a uniquely talented group of craftsmen while passing along his skill and knowledge to each member of the team. Over time, this developed into complete trust in us to build guitars that create the vintage tone he so cherished.

团队中的每个人都具有独特的工匠才华,Preston先生将他的技能与知识分享给了团队的每位成员。时间历练下培养出的默契,让团队有信心制作出能够传达Preston先生所珍视的复古音色的吉他。

 

We loved him dearly and he will be greatly missed.

His legacy will live on.

我们爱戴并将无比怀念Preston先生。

他的精神将永存。

 

This was a tune that Preston played often to showcase the sound of a Thompson to a dealer or customer.  It is ingrained in our minds and will always be a reminder of his talent and dedication to making this company succeed.

视频中的这段乐曲,Preston经常在向代理商以及顾客展示Thompson吉他时弹起。这段旋律深深刻在我们的脑海中,永远提醒着我们正是他的才华与投入奉献引领公司走向了成功。

 

A memorial celebration will be held on Saturday April 27th at 4pm at The Belfry in Sisters, Oregon.  If you are interested in attending please let us know or meet us there to celebrate Preston’s life – use this email to send a note to his family or crew. Christine@pktguitars.com

我们将于4月27日周六下午4点在俄勒冈州西斯特斯的教堂钟楼举办纪念典礼。如果您有兴趣参加,欢迎与我们联系并到场纪念Preston先生。请发送邮件与他的同事或家人取得联系。Christine@pktguitars.com

 

In lieu of flowers the family asks that you listen, share and enjoy music.

希望您能够与亲友一道倾听、分享并欣赏美妙的音乐。

Thank you everyone for your wonderful outpouring of support, it has been amazing.  We appreciate all of our customers, dealers, artists and vendors – a wonderful family of musicians and friends.

感谢大家的支持。感谢所有客户、合作伙伴、音乐人所给予的支持,这是音乐家与亲友共同组成的音乐大家庭。

 

In the future we will set up a fund in Preston’s honor to help young musicians get a Thompson in their talented hands.  He was always thinking about new players in the bluegrass community.
