EWSB are saddened to announce the passing of stalwart band member Peter Stanley.
Peter was a true bandsman and musician, and in over forty years as a member he played on most of the seats as needed, including cornet, horn, baritone, euphonium and EEb bass.
He was an active committee member and past chairman, and was instrumental in developing the bands constitution and the bands transition to charitable status.
His experience of life and bands in general was reflected in his matter of fact opinions and a measured approach to important decisions.
Peter was a loyal and major force within the fabric of the band and he will be hugely missed.
