Dennis Schofield

The Band mourns the untimely loss of their former Director of Music, WO1 Dennis Schofield, who passed away at North Shore Hospital, Auckland on Thursday 16th November 2017, at the age of 73 after a long and stoic battle. Dennis was a life-long brass bandsman, and he steered the Royal NZ Artillery Band through great times and difficult ones for some 14 years, with his musicianship, commitment, management skills and good humour. We will miss his enthusiastic attendance at our events.

We send our warmest sympathy to his wife Gail, and their family at this sad time.
