Rung in memory of 'Dan' Dando, aged 91. Father of 3 and 8, Grandfather of 1. Also rung in recognition of his service to St John's for over 60 years. Dan was a member of the Winchester & Portsmouth Diocesan Guild and continued to chime the service bell here after he had given up tower-bell ringing. He came out of retirement to ring for the millenium, aged 80, with an all-family band in Gretton, Northants.
