It is with great regret that the Order announces the sad news that Professor Anthony Mellows OBE TD, former Lord Prior 2008 - 2014, died on Sunday afternoon, after a very short spell in hospital.

 

His contribution to the Most Venerable Order, and to the fraternity of all the Johannine Orders, has been immense: learned, generous and unstintingly given over many, many years. He was heavily involved in helping and organising a number of other charities as well.

 

His funeral will be private and just for the family. A memorial service will be held at Temple Church on 15 April. The Great Officers, the Secretary-General and the staff at the International Office in London extend their sincere condolences to Elizabeth and his family at this very sad time.
