Dave Alexander passed away 19th December 2014

It is with great sadness that I announce the passing of our First Baritone player David Alexander, on Friday 19th December 2014. David was a true bandsman, always happy to help out and over the years provided the band with a number of his own arrangements. Dave’s smile and quirky sense of humour will be very sorely missed by all.

Details of Dave’s funeral will be released when known. ~ Mark
