Siskiyou Singers

Guest Director Mark Reppert

Past Director Dave Marston

DAVE MARSTON

Monday night (June 22, 2009) at 9:00 p.m., our choral conductor, artistic director, teacher, mentor, songleader, and friend, Dave Marston passed peacefully from this world.
Dave led the Siskiyou Singers for twenty-one years. His interpretation of and passion for choral music was unsurpassed. Our loss is immense.

“I have thought many times in these past weeks how hard it was to imagine a world without Dave in it. I realized this morning that the reason it's hard to imagine is because there's no such thing. This world will never be without Dave. He's so clearly and absolutely present in the spirit of everything he gave in his life - every person he loved, taught, mentored, gave support to; every gift of music and empowerment he bestowed upon his friends, his family, his community; every note he sang, played or conducted that entered the hearts of people receiving the gift he was giving them. And by his very nature, he encouraged us all - obligated us all - to pay it forward. Those ripples will flow through generations, and what Dave Marston gave in his life will never leave this world.” Tami Marston
