THE Rev E Price Jones (John), chaplain of Kelly College, Tavistock from 1965 to 1986, died on February 19 at Bronglais Hospital, Aberystwyth, after suffering a stroke.

During the many happy years he spent at Kelly College, John ministered to pupils and staff and was friend and confidant to all. He taught Divinity and English throughout the school and, a keen sportsman himself, he also coached rugby and cricket.

He returned to Mid Wales with his wife Betty in 1986, and many old Kelleians and staff visited them there and kept in contact with the family.

He continued his ministry in the local parishes until ill health intervened.

His wife, Betty, children Monica, Jono, Ruth and Jeremy and the grandchildren are grateful to all those who sent messages of condolence, flowers and donations.

The funeral was held at St Mary?s Church, Strata Florida, on Saturday, February 22.
