Lux Aeterna Tributes

These tributes are shared in honor and memory of those whose lives continue to shape our own. At our April 11, 2026 Verdi Requiem concert, we gather in reflection and hold space for gratitude, remembrance, and the enduring light that remains.

Each dedication represents a life remembered and a gift given in support of the Wichita Symphony. Thank you to our Lux Aeterna donors for ensuring that this music will be experienced as a moment of shared meaning and beauty.

Requiem aeternam dona eis, Domine, et lux perpetua luceat eis.
Grant them eternal rest, O Lord, and let everlasting light shine upon them.

 "In loving memory of my late husband, Daniel J. Sevart, who brought me to Kansas, USA from Tokyo, Japan, and in honor of his legacy, and our shared love of the practice of law, the Wichita Symphony, music and the arts."
- Shoko Kato Sevart
