The End of an Era — John’s Passing
We have a sorrowful notice for all of John’s students and friends.
It is with great sadness that we announce John’s death.
John taught people to play guitar and other instruments in Keal Cotes for over 20 years. John, his students and friends enjoyed many good times together playing under the band name Nothing Serious in pubs and clubs around the area until John took ill with cancer a couple of years ago.
John fought lung cancer until it slowly took his life. On the night of the 15th of April 2025 John gently passed into the next journey of life.
John died at home in the company of his wife, family and pet dog.
Details of John’s service and wake will be available from John’s family when the dates are set.
We thank all of you who joined John in his exceptional life.
Regards,
John’s family
Welcome to 121 Guitar Lessons.
My name is John. I teach people to play guitar, banjo, drum and fiddle. My studio is near Spilsby in Keal Cotes, England.
I teach beginner and experienced instrument enthusiasts. It is always a nice feeling to see someone take their first steps to becoming an accomplished guitar player or an adept drummer.
I teach both young and old students. Age is not an obstacle to learning, as many of my students will tell you.
