UGA students, faculty and staff members who have died in the past year will be honored in a candlelight memorial service tomorrow.
24 members of the UGA community have passed away since last April. They’re going to be honored in a candlelight ceremony on the steps of the UGA Chapel Thursday night at 7 p.m.
The names of each of the nine students, and 15 faculty and staff members will be read out loud. Then the Chapel Bell will toll and a candle for each will be lit.
UGA President Jere Morehead will lead the service and campus ministers will deliver prayers, while members of a Hugh Hodson string quartet will provide music.
The University holds a candlelight service every year for those who have died.
