Reflecting on their time together, Spyro expressed his deep sorrow and regret that Sound Sultan was not alive to witness his continued success. He wrote, “I MISS YOU mentor … I cannot COUNT MY BLESSINGS without you. Today thoughts of how you fed me, clothed me and accepted me when nobody did come rushing back. I remember a night we were to go for an event and I, as usual, came so unkept and fashion-less but while others laughed at me, you went up to your room and brought your cloth down for me to wear.”

He continued, “I wish you were here to see all that is happening. I remember how I would always tell you I would make you proud and it’s sad you ain't here now. Thank you for all you taught me and did for me … Till we meet again, jest on in power.”

The open letter shared by Spyro is a testament to the deep and meaningful bond between him and Sound Sultan, and serves as a poignant reminder of the impact that mentors can have on their mentees.
