In Memoriam

This page is dedicated to the memory of our fellow Burlington Teen Tour Band members, staff and chaperones who are no longer with us. Though they may be gone, they remain forever a part of our band family.

We remember them not only for the music they played and the uniforms they wore, but for the friendships, laughter and spirit they brought to every performance and rehearsal. Their legacy lives on in the stories we share, the traditions we uphold and the music that continues to echo through generations.

Gone, but never forgotten — they will always march with us in heart and memory.

The following list was carried over from the previous Alumni website. Since then, we’ve sadly lost more members of our community. To help us honour and remember them, please share any updates by emailing bttbalumni@gmail.com.  (Please include their section and years in the band.)
