Lost one of WoP own

Post by JCYS » Mon Feb 14, 2011 10:59 am

Sadly I have to announce the passing of Matt Kolbenstetter, known to WoP posters as MKbooboo2.

Matt was my one of my clarinet section leaders in when I taught in SO Cal, and gave it up to play tuba, where he eventually became section leader and marched in the Tournament of Roses honor band.

He was head of the Chamber of Commerce in Visalia and helped run the Visalia band review in the past.

Matt was only 41.

I am very sorry to hear about your loss. Praying for peace.

Only 41? It's certainly too early for anyone to go at 41.
