Popular Guitarist Says Goodbye To His Music-Loving Companion, Maple

June 19, 2021

Trench, a fingerstlye guitarist, shares videos of himself playing covers of popular songs while his loyal sidekick, Maple, watches in delight.

His YouTube channel "Acoustic Trench" has more than 2 million subscribers.

On June 17, Maple crossed the Rainbow Bridge and Trench wrote a heartfelt goodbye. He also shared a cover of "What A Wonderful World".

"Yesterday I had to say goodbye to my best friend. Maple passed away peacefully during the night, while I held her in my arms. We have spent every moment together for over 12 years, doing everything together. I adopted her from a rescue shelter and the first time we met she tackled me, leaping into my arms, wagging her tail so hard and with a smiling face full of love. We went on so many adventures together, and she was always there for me with her unconditional love through difficult times. Music helped to soothe and comfort her, especially when she was feeling anxious during thunderstorms and fireworks so I would play for her to help calm her down. She would lay beside me with her head in my lap and listen to the guitar until she fell asleep. I feel so lucky to have had her in my life, the bond we shared is indescribable and my heart is aching.

There are a lot of videos that I filmed with Maple which I never posted on YouTube, or videos I didn't finish editing, that I might release in the future. I hope that some of the moments we shared together over the years have helped to bring some joy or comfort to you. Thank you for the love and support you have shown us.

I love you Maple."
