In Memory of Reg.#17853, Corporal W. J. 'Bill' Hesse

Corporal Hesse was born in Windorst, SK on June 25, 1920. He joined the RCMP in Regina, SK as a Bandsman musician. He had been trained to play the tuba.

The 'Depot' Band was dissolved about 1959, so Corporal Hesse chose to work under the Corps Sergeant Major as the Division Orderly. He held that post until he retired in 1976.

Corporal Hesse died unexpectedly in 1988 at the age of 68 years. He is buried in Regina, SK
