Sad News: Choir Director and Verizon HSTS Finalist Robert Weaver Passed Away

Robert Weaver, leader and visionary of Robert Weaver and The Weaver Chorale, passed away Saturday morning after recently being diagnosed with cancer. The specific type of cancer that claimed Weaver’s life has not been made public, as it may be a violation of the HIPAA laws to do so.  We send our prayers and condolences to Minister Weaver’s family, friends and loved ones.

Robert Weaver and The Weaver Chorale were regional finalists in Verizon’s How Sweet The Sound Choir Competition. The choir got their start in April of 1998 with only nine members until Weaver decided to expand and relocate to Atlanta. Since then the ensemble has been nominated for 4 Rhythm of Gospel Awards and released original music that’s available now on iTunes.

The Weaver Chorale has been blessed and anointed to share the stage with many great artists like La Shun Pace, James Hall, Ricky Dillard, Pastor Hezekiah Walker, B. Chase Williams, J.J. Hairston and Youthful Praise, California’s National Legends Edwin & Walter Hawkins, Lady Helen J.H. Stephen and The Northern CA Chapter of the GMWA, Norman Hutchins, John P. Kee.
