It is with great sadness that we announce the death of Bob Paxman.
Bob passed away after a short illness on the morning of Monday 25th July.
A tribute to Bob and information on a service to celebrate his life and achievements will appear here as they become available.
Our thoughts and sympathies are with his family at this time.
Bob Paxman was a director of and until 2000 the owner of Paxman Musical Instruments, the world-famous manufacturer of horns. In 1993 he was awarded the MBE for services to music and industry.
I met Bob a few times, he would come and listen to the concerts of the Hillingdon Philharmonic Orchestra. He would always come round and say "hi" and "well done" to the horns afterwards.
A thoroughly nice man, and a great loss to the world of the horn.
