Dear Silver Band Members,

As some of you may know, our dear friend Jerry Pokarney passed away on Friday.  We will miss him terribly and it will be a very different Tuesday evening without him.

Ammerland was a very special piece to him and it spoke to his heart very deeply.  Because of this, I have decided that instead of doing the Candlelight Carol for the Mayor's Concert, we will perform Ammerland in his memory.  JoAnn will have this ready for us for our upcoming rehearsal.

I don't yet have details regarding a service for him but when I do I will let you know.

Karen
