Comments:As a former member (but always a member at heart), my heart-felt condolences go out to the St. Peter's family on the loss of their mentor and friend, Benny Antonelli. I met Him when I was 8 years old as a member of Carey's Cadets, which Benny recruited me from when I turned 12. Benny was like a father to me when I was at Corps events and always had a smile for me when I've seen him in recent years. He will be sadly missed.

Comments:To continue... Dr. McAtavey was judging. This was in 1962 or so. The rest, let's just say, is history. I wish for you all a great upcoming season. The best praise you can give Benny will be to keep St. Peter's going and growing! I will be thinking fondly of you all. My best to you, David and Dayl Graves.

Comments:Dear Friends, Thank you so much for letting me know about Benny, I will miss him for many, many reasons, as I'm certain you do as well. The last time Dayl and I saw him was at the CFDA convention in Wethersfield a few years ago. I guess I knew something was up when the NE Drum Corps News abruptly stopped coming. I was not aware of his illness. Thank you, Peter for the obituary. Since moving, I rely on my mom, who is still at home in West Suffield for Connecticut news, but alas, this past Christmas, she landed herself into a nursing home in Granby for 3 weeks with a fractured pelvis, so missed the news. She is doing well now and is back home. I, perhaps, could write a book about our beloved friend and musician. For me, Benny was the best, a great and positive influence on so many. We all felt his sense of love and concern, knowing what was best, even when we didn't know. My first remembrance of him was when he and I competed for the NE Trumpet championship in Yonkers, NY. Dr.
