It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of our dear friend, bassist Michael Giefer. Our band would not have achieved its success without Michael. For the past 15 years, he was the first to arrive and the last to leave, always giving his all and attending to every detail. He was a consummate friend, always ready to help anyone in need. His life of service to his country, his friends, his family and our band made him incredibly special. He was deeply proud of his military background and held his fellow service members in the highest esteem. As we mourn this tremendous loss, the future of our band is currently uncertain. We ask for your patience and understanding during this difficult time. We will share information regarding a celebration of life as soon as arrangements are finalized.
