Most sorry to hear. Condolences to his family. Hugh (Boboy) was a true pioneer who took Tripoli to the US market a way not achieved by many, if any, other bands. His association with Liberace carried the sound of pan into venues that were not accessible to other bands of the era. His older brother Carl played with Dixie Stars in the 50's, and later the (first) Esso Steel band in Bermuda. May he have peace in the Big PanYard above.

Condolences, to Bobboy  Family and Friends.
