Memorial service for John Howard (East Grinstead ringer)

REMEMBERING JOHN HOWARD; SATURDAY 5 FEBRUARY.

John was Treasurer of our Association from 1976 until 1991 and an Honorary Life Member until he passed away in 2020. For many years he rang at East Grinstead and was one of those who was instrumental in having the new ring of ten installed at the tower followed by the augmentation to twelve.

Due to Covid restrictions only a small family funeral could be held; John's family have now arranged an event to remember him. This will be held in the church hall at East Grinstead starting at 2pm on Saturday, 5th February. It will be an informal gathering for tea and refreshments, in addition the bells will be available for those wishing to have a ring.
