A Personal Note From Ana Chuck, over the past few years, I’ve had the privilege of getting to know you, not just as a generous supporter of the College of Music, but as someone whose life has been shaped by music, community and love. It’s been a joy to hear your stories, learn about your journey as a trumpet player and jazz enthusiast, and see how deeply you care about helping students grow through music. What stands out most is how personal your connection to UNT truly is. From your time playing trumpet in the New Horizons Band with Dr. Debbie Rohwer, to your friendships with faculty like Alan Baylock and Rob Parton, to the many concerts and rehearsals you’ve attended, your presence has always been about more than just showing up. It’s about investing in the future of music and the people who carry it forward. From our conversations and what I’ve learned about Mary, it’s clear that both of you have been deeply committed to growing Denton through education, the arts and community. I hope this vision for your philanthropic impact feels like a meaningful way to honor that legacy, and that it excites you as much as it inspires us.
