It is with great sadness that I inform everyone that Carroll Lentz passed away early on Saturday morning, October 11. Carroll Lentz's name is synonymous with the bells at St. Andrew's in Princess Anne. In 1993, to celebrate the 300th anniversary of Somerset Parish, a set of 6 English change ringing bells were installed; and Carroll was there at the beginning. He helped design the framing in the tower, oversaw the installation, and along with his wife Patricia (Tish) learned to ring. He served as Tower Captain for 20 years.
