Honoring Anne Brandyberry’s 27 Years of Dedication

After 27 remarkable years of inspiring students through music at Dempsey Middle School and Delaware Hayes High School, Anne Brandyberry is retiring. Her passion, leadership, and commitment have shaped countless young musicians and left a lasting legacy in the Pacer Bands.

In her honor, we are purchasing a bass clarinet that will be used by future Pacer band students for years to come. This instrument will carry a special dedication plaque recognizing Anne’s extraordinary service.

We invite band families to contribute to this honorary gift. Any amount is welcome and deeply appreciated—whether it’s $5, $25, or more. Together we can celebrate a career that has meant so much to so many.

Thank you for helping us give Mrs. Brandyberry the heartfelt send-off she deserves. Your support means the world to her and to the Pacer Bands program.
