David Sansum

The passing of a loyal member of the Guild.

David Everett – Guild Secretary

Hello All


I am writing to inform you that our brother in Christ, David Sansum, died on 17th November


David has been a Guild member since 1965. He was a prolific peal ringer and rang a total of 76 peals for the Guild. The first was in 1969 of Plain Bob Royal (the first of Royal for the Guild) at Magdalen College, Oxford and his last was at Morville in 2012. His 76 peals means he rang in more than two-thirds of the total number of the peals rung for the Guild!! Some achievement! 


Others will have known him far longer than I have but I believe he will be considered to be one of life’s characters and a good friend to all. May he rest in peace. David Everett

David Sansum’s funeral will be on Monday 13th December 2021 at 1pm at All Saints Church, Compton Greenfield (off Farm Lane with Postcode BS35 5RZ).

I understand that there is a car park at the church but it is unlikely to be big enough for all those attending. There is also a car park at the Village Hall which is available and only a short walk from the Church. The church is not far from junction 17 on the M5.  – David Everett
