Modesto’s Threshold Choir plans public event to recall those who’ve died in pandemic

A musical remembrance in Modesto will honor those who have died from the pandemic.

The Threshold Choir will present “Walking Each Other Home: A Choral Remembrance” on Sunday, May 1, at Graceada Park.

The event is for families of those who have died from COVID-19, as well as any community members who want to join, according to a press release.

Threshold Choir has 200 chapters around the country and the world, including the one in Modesto.

The nonprofit group “sings gentle, comforting songs in groups of two to four to people at the thresholds of life, including sick and dying people,” the release said. “The songs are written by members across the globe and represent messages of peace, kindness and love.”

The remembrance is set for 2 p.m. May 1 at the Mini Stage in Graceada Park, 401 Needham St., Modesto. For more information, email ModestoThresholdSingers@gmail.com.
