The scaba team were shocked and saddened to hear of the death of Gwyndreath Press, who passed away following a heart attack on Thursday 22nd January. Gwyn was 48.
Based in Woolwich with the Royal Artillery band for several years, Gwyn (known to many as Shrek) played with a number of bands in the scaba area including Aveley & Newham, Northfleet, Medway and Friary Guildford.
Gwyn, a founder member of the British Army Brass Band, was known for his fine BBb tuba playing and taste in sports cars. He was a genuine, funny man who will be greatly missed by everyone who knew him. Our thoughts and best wishes go out to Gwyn’s family and friends at this sad time.
