A letter from Rosita A-1's sponsor

Last week, we posted a story about A-1 Rosita and the help that she has been receiving. This is a note written from her sponsor. Thank you so much for providing a way for Rosita to hear the music she loves, in addition to provision of her basic needs!
"I have to tell you [Rosita's story] brought tears to my eyes, also. When I have asked you in the past what Rosita needed, I have thought about a radio, but I never mentioned it.
God definitely had a hand in the pairing of Rosita and myself. 
I started to sponsor her in memory of my Dad who passed away. He was a multi-talented musician and played in a band for many years. He played his mandolin in his hospice bed only a few days before he died.
I also am a singer, not so much opera, but play a few instruments,  and write music mostly in the gospel genre.
To hear that Rosita always wanted to be a singer warms my heart so. Music is one of God's blessings that can be such a healer for the heart and soul. 
I also love Pavorotti and Bocelli. I want Rosita to experience this wonderful music which hopefully can bring her some peace while she is homebound.
...Please pass on some of the above on to Rosita. Tell her that I send this gift to her with much love, in Honor of our God, Rosita and my Dad. I hope she can enjoy this music until she takes her last breath, and goes home to the final opera in Heaven, which will be forever."
