Bill Tregoe passed away on February 25th. Throughout his 35-year career as a sales rep for CG Conn and later King Musical Instruments, Tregoe drove an estimated 1,300,000-plus miles.

As a trumpet student Bill took lessons at a Conn Music Store and later became a band director, serving schools mostly in Texas and Florida from 1949 until he was hired by Conn in 1962.
