These pages give the names of those who have died since October 1996 and who were mentioned (with or without a brief Obituary) in the Hymn Society Bulletin from Volume XV (January 1997) and onwards. Some additional names are included, not mentioned in the Bulletin (or not yet), but from information received from other sources; these are prefixed with an *asterisk.

The dates are as given in the Bulletin or other immediately available reference books; they have not all been independently checked. In some cases only a date of death and age at death appears in the Bulletin; approximate year of birth has been inferred in such cases for the purpose of this list.

The list below is in chronological order of date of death (earliest first). A re-arranged list in alphabetical order of surname is also given; click here for the start of this alphabetical list.

Some of the Obituary Notices in the Bulletin or from other sources have been transcribed here, and in such cases the name of the individual is high-lighted in the list. Click on this to read the obituary.
