Add to this grove
This grove of trees is being created in celebration of Bill Puplett's life. Bill was a widely respected and loved luthier and musician. He will be remembered by family and friends for his kindness, integrity and humour, and for being a truly decent human being. Among his wide and varied interests were an appreciation of nature; these trees, planted in his honour, will support an abundance of wildlife for generations to come. Rock on Bill! Thanks for all that you’ve given us.

Thanks for the memories Bill. I was just a "fan-boy" in the early days and it was wonderful to see how your care for the instrument was appreciated by so many in the rest of your life.Donated by Ian GLENDINNING

Bill was a lovely gentle, wise man & the benchmark of excellence in his work. I consider it an honour to play guitars with his signature discreetly marked in a neck pocket or under a top. His absolute precision, fastidiousness & vision were an inspiration in my own work serving musicians in another technical sector of the music world. Without the slightest exaggeration, he was the very best.Donated by Simon Wroe
