It is with a very heavy heart that we report a very sad day in piping. October 22, 2012, saw the passing of two very well known pipers.
Bruce Burt, who was a member of the MWPBA Adjudication Panel, passed. Bruce went way back in piping and had played in many bands and judged many contests over the years.
Roddy MacDonald also passed away the same day. Roddy was a member of the famous Invergordon Pipe Band in Scotland and an important figure in piping on the East Coast of the U.S.
Both of these people were good friends of many in the MWPBA and beyond, and they will be missed. Please keep their families in your thoughts and prayers.
