Sad to report that fellow TH member John Wilson (JWILSON46) passed away in Hamilton, MT this morning. John had been bravely battling cancer for many years. John was a career member of the US Navy Band and freelanced also in the Washington DC area before retiring to Hamilton, MT. When I was a young trumpet player in Great Falls, MT my Dad would take me to hear John and his trumpet player Dad, Emmett, play in various venues in town. Father and son were such an inspiration for me. He will be missed. I was fortunate to play a concert with John in Missoula, MT a few years back.
