UGA holds memorial service for faculty, staff, students

Twenty-four University of Georgia faculty, staff and students who died since last April will be honored at the university’s annual candlelight memorial service on April 29 at the UGA Chapel.

During the “Georgia Remembers … a Candelight Memorial,” names of each of the 13 students and 11 faculty and staff members will be read aloud, followed by a toll of the Chapel bell and lighting of a candle.

The service will be lead by UGA President Jere Morehead. Names will be read by leaders of the university and staff councils and the student government association.
