Memorial ServiceReviewed on May 8, 2023From Fremont Center, NY

Bob Duffy was a true professional. He arrived early, greeted guests and played throughout the ceremony. The sounds of the bagpipes really made the event special.

Memorial ServiceReviewed on May 7, 2023From Rochester, NY

Bob Flynn arrived 1 hour early before the Memorial Service started and we met and he was very congenial. He looked very professional in his bagpiper kilt and jacket. He put me at ease with his easygoing personality and he his playing mesmerized all those in attendance.

BOB DID AN AMAZING JOB WHILE PLANNING FOR MY SON'S WEDDING TO THE ACTUAL FUNCTION. BOB WAS RESPONSIVE TO OUR REQUESTS AA IT WAS A BIT DIFFERENT.BOB ENTERED THE CHURCH FOR THE RECESSION AND LED THE WEDDING PARTY AND GUESTS TO THE VENUE. BOB THEN PLAYED OUTSIDE THE VENUE AND FINALLY LED THE WEDDING PARTY BACK TO THE CHURCH AND PARK FOR PHOTOS.

Family ReunionReviewed on July 24, 2022From Lake Pleasant, NY

Bob Flynn is a talented bagpiper as well as being one of the nicest people you could ever meet. He drove a long distance on back roads to perform for our centennial family camp reunion on a hot July evening. He played beautifully and movingly a half hour program of Scottish songs. Hope to cross his path again!

Review by Cecilia K.

FuneralReviewed on June 26, 2022From Newfield, NY

Bob was very accommodating by driving to an out of the way cemetery to play at my brother’s graveside service. His playing added a special touch to the service. I would recommend Bob to others in need of a bag piper.

Review by Barbara R.

FuneralReviewed on April 9, 2022From Fulton, NY

Bob was wonderful! He played beautifully for our Dad’s graveside service on very short notice. He was punctual, professional, and added so much to our sweet, brief service. Thank you, Bob!

Review by Karen M.

FuneralReviewed on November 15, 2021From Rochester, NY

Bob played all of the Irish music my Mom would have loved. We even had time for a spontaneous Irish Jig. It added something so special to the funeral for my Mom and helped us to honor her that day.

Review by Michael M.

Memorial ServiceReviewed on August 18, 2021From Auburn, NY

He was great. Played outside the church between the parking lot and doors before the service and after since he was not allowed to play in the church. Played the songs we discussed beforehand as well as the traditional favorites.

:

Thank you, Michael. It was a beautiful ceremony, and I was honored to be able to contribute to it. Bob

Review by Barry M.

FuneralReviewed on July 6, 2021From Gilbertsville, NY

Bob Flynn and his Pipes helped us all survive my Mom’s funeral…his playing, his heart, his manner…top notch…we will all be forever grateful…at such a sad time, Bob and his Pipes were miraculous. Thank you Bob Flynn, The Champion..we tip our hats to you. My Mom’s Dad, Patrick Readie, was a Piper from Scotland…and he would have found Bob to be of top caliber. My only wish, was that I should have brought Bob to play for my Ma while she was alive…it would have electrified her soul….beneficence…magnificence…

:

Thank you so much for your kind words, Barry! It was an honor to be able to contribute something to an already beautiful celebration of your mother's life! I really enjoyed meeting all of you! Bob

Bob was so intuitive, helped me align the event with the military honor guard, was patient, very personable and everyone loved the music. He helped me chose the most appropriate songs for each phase of the memorial. Great guy!

Wedding CeremonyReviewed on June 30, 2019From Fabius, NY

Bob is a wonderful piper, you certainly won’t regret hiring him for your special event. He was super friendly, professional and accommodating. During our ceremony he wore traditional kilt and Highland dress (which was awesome!) and played so beautifully. Everything turned out better than I could have hoped :)

Wedding CeremonyReviewed on January 14, 2019From Baldwinsville, NY

Performance was excellent. His role was confusing at first, not his fault, but he graciously went with the flow!!! Thank you !

Review by Will K.

FuneralReviewed on October 29, 2018From Cooperstown, NY

Bob's performance greatly enhanced my father's funeral mass in Cooperstown, NY - he played inside and outside the church and again at the cemetery - in classic Scottish Highlands weather (cold, rain, and wind). Could not have been better.

:

Thank you for your kind words, Will! It was a truly beautiful service, and I was honored to have been able to contribute to it. Best regards, Bob Flynn
