Marion E. Gibbons

Gibby was many things to me: a piano teacher, vocal coach, musical director and mentor. But most important of all he was a dear friend. I carry with me and treasure every memory of him and will never forget his kind, strong, humorous, and loving spirit. I will forever miss you, Gibby...with much love, Joe.

I was deeply saddened by the passing of my friend "Gibby", and I feel deeply honored that I was priveledged to have known this gentle man. He brought wonderful music into my life as a member of his choir and also as a soloist under his great direction.
What we have lost the angels have gained, for I am quite sure he will be directing an heavenly choir.
In a little corner of my heart you will always stay my friend.

Gibby: You are the essence of what it means to be a Gentlemen. "Many people will walk in and out of my life, but only those special friends will leave footprints in my heart". I will miss seeing you enjoy your love of music and the pleasure it brought to your very soul. You will remain for me one of the most incredible people that I have ever met in my lifetime. Thank you Gibby for sharing your talents, your appreciation of the arts, your politics and our friendship. I will never forget you. ...
