It is with great sorrow that we heard of the passing of our friend the Phantom. Mr. Jon Persinger, a friend and musical companion in the Roanoke Valley was instumental in helping Roanoke Music come alive during the past three years. As the Phantom, he spearheaded getting the word out on the great local talent in the Valley.
We miss him greatly and appreciate all that he accomplished for the Roanoke Valley. We offer our condolences to his family and many friends. May his memory live on through his writing, music, and friends.
