Editor,My condolences to the family of the late Athanase Sentore. I pray that the Almighty Lord takes care of the cultural music icon’s family in this trying moment. And may God give him eternal peace. We will miss him so much.Julius Kalisa RwakaremaRwanda I didn’t know Athanase Sentore’s music, but I used to hear my father praising him so much. I grew up knowing that there was a living music legend in Rwanda. Rest in peace Sentore, your legacy will live on. Charles NgarambeNyarutaramaI learnt with grief the death of Mzee Athanase Sentore, one of the few true icons of Rwanda’s cultural music. Thanks to him and a few others like him, Rwanda’s culture is alive and kicking on the local music scene. Sentore was a great composure and vocalist, and there’s no doubt our country has lost a great talent. Nonetheless, because of his foresightedness and generosity, he groomed many local artistes and it’s my hope they take over the mantle. RIP Mzee Sentore.
