So sorry to hear of Mr Dill's passing. I can vividly remember when Ms. LaRue allowed him conduct our band at Stephen's Jr Hi, I was hooked. I marched with him in the '68 Rose Parade and in my senior year, I had him for four periods! I so enjoyed Mr. Dill, I will never forget him.

So sorry to hear of Bob Dill's passing. Starting with children's choir at First Presbyterian Church, through the creation of the Chapel Choir (and pairing rehearsals with UPY) at Covenant Church, to summer musicals Bob (Mr Dill) had a major impact on my life. His kindness and support were even more generous as I was one of the least musical of his participants. He had a huge impact on generations, and we are better people for his presence. He will be missed. My condolences to his family.

Mr. Dill was my band and orchestra director at Poly High, and he was my church choir and orchestra director at Covenant Presbyterian Church. He also marched with me in the Rose Parade for two years two years. He was a very dedicated musician, teacher, and man after God's heart.

At Poly and at Arrowbear, I will always treasure the wonderful relationship I had with Bob Dill, creating halftime shows for the Poly Band, playing concerts and sharing our love of music. RIP dear friend.

I'm saddened to hear of the passing of Bob Dill. Such a kind man he was! I sang in his choir at Covenant Presbyterian Church and remember those days fondly. The angel choir in heaven has welcomed new director!
