It is with profound sadness we announce Mary Meehan, wife of Assistant Conductor Emeritus and band Percussionist Bob Meehan, passed away suddenly yesterday morning.
Mary was an ardent supporter of the band for four decades and was the lifelong companion to Bob during 55 years of marriage. She was a cherished mother, grand-mother, great-grand-mother, aunt to numerous nieces and nephews, and sister to her siblings. Well known for her service to others, we are tremendously grateful for her friendship, her warm smile, and being one to share a kind word to everyone with whom she came in contact. On a weekly basis she accompanied Bob to rehearsals, and to our performances throughout the year.
