Their final tune was, according to some survivor accounts, "Nearer My God To Thee". All members of the band, including his friend Jock Hume, drowned and the body of Wesley Woodward was never recovered. A memorial plaque was erected to Woodward on the promenade in Eastbourne depicting the Titanic as it sank. (en)
