Once upon a time, Monica Cecile Hewitt , a radiant soul from Anguilla, British West Indies, set sail for New York, her dreams as vast as the ocean she crossed. In the bustling city, she dedicated herself to nursing, specializing in the delicate art of bringing new life into the world. Her love for life, unwavering faith, and deep devotion to family shone brightly.

In homage to her legacy, her son Russell Hewitt co-founded Live Life 920, a tribute business blending her essence with the eternal mark of her September 20th birthday. Monica’s influence extended beyond nursing; she encouraged her three sons to embrace music. Clayton Devere Hewitt, her eldest, excelled as a pilot and pianist. Russell, the middle son, became a piano teacher, while Michael Basden, the youngest, honed his skills to become a world-renowned saxophonist.

Her husband, Telford Devere Hewitt, a gifted musician, instilled a love for melody in their children from a tender age. Music, from accordion to saxophone, became a cherished ritual, weaving through their lives like a vibrant thread connecting to their Caribbean roots. Nurtured by practice and dedication, their passion for music now guides Live Life 920, offering opportunities for aspiring artists to flourish.

With a mission to inspire and cultivate tomorrow’s musicians, Live Life 920 aims to ignite the flame within every aspiring artist, not only providing access to music and art but also fostering dreams to blossom. Across Bergen County, they extend a hand of opportunity, weaving a narrative of love, legacy, and the transformative power of music to enrich lives.
