The Clovis High music community mourns the loss of

The Clovis High music community mourns the loss of William “Bill” Contente, Jr., AKA “Mr. C.” a cherished leader, musician, and educator whose dedication to students and music shaped the legacy of Clovis High and the Golden Cougar Marching Band and Color Guard.

Bill’s career began as an exceptional trumpet player, serving as 1st chair in the 6th Army Band during his U.S. Army service and composing the celebrated march El Matador. After earning his B.A. and M.A. in Music from Fresno State, he became the Clovis High band director in 1966, inspiring excellence and pride in the Golden Cougar Marching Band. Leading the Golden Cougar Marching Band was a highlight of Bill’s musical career.

Though he transitioned into administrative roles in 1970, Bill’s commitment to the music program remained unwavering. As Deputy Principal and later Principal of Clovis High, he played a pivotal role in leading the band to iconic performances, including President Ronald Reagan’s inaugural parade in 1981 and the Montreux Jazz Festival in 1982. His leadership elevated the program and left a lasting mark on the Clovis community.

A symbol of school spirit, Bill’s golden trumpet and dedication to students became legendary, uniting generations through music. His passion and love for Clovis High will forever resonate in our hearts.

The Clovis High family extends its deepest condolences to his wife, Gail, and the entire Contente family. Mr. C’s legacy will continue to inspire our community for years to come. #onceacougaralwaysacougar #ThankYouMrC
