Tribute to the Life of David Barber – From Our Ballet West Family

I listen to the sounds of his feet walking away.

Another friend has left us on this beautiful day.

Another life fully lived and embraced.

A great soul whose memory cannot be erased.
He was a soul who had a welcoming smile.

He was the guy who went the extra mile.
He was always there back in my dancing days.

And his beautiful heart leaves me in a daze.

There are those that we can never forget.

Because they were always there with a headset.

Listening to the calls and making the magic on stage.
During that important time in another age.
We are all coming to that moment in time.

When we fondly remember those from our prime.

That helped to make beauty and light.

That contributed to many fantastic performance nights.

Some are spiritual family that we wander with forever.
Some hearts are so big that the connections never sever.

Even in death, their heart will always remain.
Because the theater will always be his domain.
