We will all surely miss seeing you at the area contest and at the fairs, your wife and friends will never forget you. Brass bands also mourne a great servant, lots of love Michelle, Shoey, little Alice Barrow, and Jean and Dean Sleath.

Out thoughts will be with you forever.

we were all saddened by the news of your death and will all surely miss you.

From Michelle, Shoey and our new little girl Alice May Barrow who i am sure would have brightened up your face and not forgetting Jean and Dean Sleath close family friends.

Alice has already been to band rehearsals and to whit friday contest you will be glad to hear, to early to say if she will be a cornet, bass or even a drummer.

Friends and the brass band world mourne a very warm and commited person our thoughts are with you and your wife Kath who is not in good health also.

We will miss you at all the shows and band contests, you were a person who always had a smile on his face.

Lots of love from all of us.

My father always spoke very fondly of you and your dedication. He frequently talked about you playing the post horn gallop at Filbert Street after the war. I am a keen City fan and it was a joy to see you play in more recent years. Our paths crossed when my kids played with Loughbough Band under Bud Fisher and your involvement with them
A very sad goodbye to a great man.

As a youngster, I remember your guiding hand as I timidly sat on the back row of the Ancient Order of Foresters Band (Leicester), for the first time.
You clearly didn't put me off playing - I'm still enjoying banding as much now as I did then!
A sad loss to all who knew you.
