The Denver Brass dedicates its 2015-16 season to Gerald “Jerry” Endsley

Jerry loved everything trumpet, dedicated his life to the Denver Municipal Band, was a friend to hundreds of brass players and was the funniest and most positive person you would ever want to know. A loving husband to Pam Endsley and proud father to his children Shane and Marguerite, Jerry personified love, caring and friendship. We will all miss his wry wit, ever present smile and consummate musicianship. Thank you, Jerry, for making us laugh, learn and love. You’re in our hearts forever.

A moving tribute to those who gave their lives protecting liberty and freedom both at home and abroad. Their ultimate sacrifice goes beyond the pride of a uniform and commitment to duty; a soldier embodies passion,

courage, sacrifice and honor. We salute these courageous men and women.
