REDDIT USER MUCTUR recently bought a Soundgarden album on vinyl.

But he got more than he bargained for when he opened up the record and found a beautiful note inside from the previous owner’s mother.

It read:

Just in case you want to know where this record this coming from: – I am Mark’s mother — Mark left us in 2002 — he suffered a heart attack at age 39 while running in the Oregon coastal mountains.

The only consolation we have is that he died in a beautiful place doing what he loved most, running, music and of course his son, Kai.

Mark collected this music in the 80s while attending college. I would ask him on occasion when he slepped all this music home (2000 CDs + over 600 vinyl LPs!) “What do you want me to do with all this music if something should happen to you?”

“Listen to it, Mom,” he would say.

Well, I did listen to a few but now it is time to share them. I am doing the best I can — doing research, listing, shipping, etc. — but it is good therapy for me to see this music being shared all over the world and the $s from it will go towards Kai’s education.

Thank you for your support and when you play it, play it loud for Mark!
