"While the pandemic disallowed our community to properly honor, celebrate, and lay to rest our dearly departed piano patriarch, Ellis Marsalis Jr, due to large public gathering health precautions upon Ellis' transition in April of 2020, the Marsalis Family now sees fit to invite all who cherished our beloved son, brother, husband, father, uncle, grandfather, musician, composer, teacher, professor, mentor, neighbor, and community leader to gather together on Sunday, May 15 at 1pm and send up his spirit in our generational tradition."
