It is really admirable how Sasha Daltonn gave Chicago her insight and ideas on this major project of presenting gospel music to the masses. From Chicago's Gospel Music Festival's conception to its execution, Sasha was the cohesiveness that made it a national model for cities across this nation. She gave us a unique perspective, collaborated with significant gospel music enthusiasts, and presented a production of a phenomenal gospel music celebration. In fact, had it not been for Ms. Daltonn's persistence and consistent due diligence we would not have the memories today of the world's largest gospel festival, presented in the home of gospel music.
