We are so saddened to hear the news of Braden Pontoli's passing. Braden was part of our community too. He sang solos with us over the past two years, sharing his beautiful baritone voice. He was the most gracious host to us as the music director of the Claremont United Methodist Church. He was always kind, patient, and generous, and his musical gifts brought joy and healing to many. This is such a sad time for everyone whose life he touched. We wish comfort to his loved ones and offer our many condolences to all who are grieving.

Our community is in grief as we navigate this loss.

We are so sad to hear of the passing of Matthew Miles, who served as the director of Mountainside Master Chorale for the oast several years, as well as being a husband, a father, a singer, and many other things. Our hearts go out to his family in particular.

There is a Go Fund Me campaign to support his family during this time, if you wish to offer financial support to them.
