St. John's Bell Choir

By Lorraine Lieswald,

Atkinson Graphic reporter

Evelyn (Stansberry) Spence loved hand bells and believed a hand bell choir would be good for St. John's Lutheran Church where she was a member. 
Back in 1984 she gifted the church a five-octave set of hand bells.
Sadly, Spence never heard the hand bells played. She was killed in a car accident before the musical instruments were delivered to the church.
