On Tuesday, January 23, 2024, our much loved band leader, Gerry Lefave, passed away. It is with heavy hearts and profound grief that we share the news of his passing. Gerry finally left this world after a valiant fight against lung cancer that lasted for a whole year. He left behind a legacy that was filled with music, friendship, and memories that will be cherished forever.
More than just a band leader, Gerry Lefave was the beating heart of our musical family. He was the reason we all came together. His enthusiasm for music was contagious, and his commitment to our art motivated every member of the band to achieve even greater and more remarkable levels of success.
Over the course of many years, Gerry’s leadership was responsible for transforming our collective sound, resulting in a beautiful combination that struck a chord with audiences and made an unforgettable impression on the music landscape.
The voyage that Gerry took with us was a demonstration of his tenacity and unyielding spirit. Even though he was dealing with the difficulties that come with a persistent illness, he continued to lead with enthusiasm, putting his whole heart and soul into each and every performance. It was nothing short of heroic that he could not let go of his drive to share his passion for music, even in the face of opposition.
Thank you from the bottom of our hearts and prayers are extended to our good friend Gerry. We will never forget the music you played, and your memory will continue to motivate us to make magic with our instruments. Your music will live on in our hearts forever.
The absence of your presence may make the stage appear more empty, but the tunes that you performed will continue to reverberate; they will serve as a constant reminder of the happiness and fervour that you brought into our lives.
