Parish of St Andrews, Vicar The Rev John Gandy, M.A.
p6 “... we find at the head of the church the Rev John Gandy, vicar of St Andrew’s, a man possessing talents that would enable him to fill stations of great importance; but he has constantly resisted the applicatons of his friends, as well as of his parishioners, to commit any of his sermons to press. They are, however, highly distinguished, and much prized by his hearers for their sound doctrine and acute reasoning; some of them are master-pieces of argument, the language is copious and figurative.”

Plymouth and Devonport: In Times of War and Peace By Henry Francis Whitfeld
p492 “The Rev John Gandy, for 56 years vicar of St Andrew’s, was ‘a beautiful example of the Christian pastor”; and in the words of the monument erected to his memory in St Andrew’s Church - representing Religion standing near a sarcophogus - ‘he exercised the endowment of a powerful mind in the spirit of one who knew that he was a steward and desired only to be found faithful.’ Mr Gandy was a man of ready wit, and when a parishioner declared that he would rather make matches than lead a life such as one of his neighbors, he replied:’So would I, for making matches is quite in my line.’”
