OXFORD, Miss. \u2013 Each year, the University of Mississippi<\/a> family pauses to honor and remember the lives of students, faculty and staff members who died during the past year.<\/p>\n

This year’s ceremony is set for 4 p.m. Thursday (May 4) at Paris-Yates Chapel. Established by Chancellor Emeritus Robert Khayat, University of Mississippi Memorial Day is observed on the last Thursday of classes.<\/p>\n

The day is important for friends and family of the deceased, said Brandi Hephner LaBanc, vice chancellor for student affairs<\/a>.<\/p>\n

“The university memorial ceremony gives us the opportunity to recognize the students, faculty and staff members who are taken from us and whose passing leaves a void in the Ole Miss family,” she said.<\/p>\n

The service will include music by the University String Quartet and remarks from Hephner LaBanc; Gazel Giles, Staff Council president; Michael Barnett, former chair of the Faculty Senate; and Dion Kevin, Associated Student Body president.<\/p>\n

The ceremony, which is open to the LOU community, will honor:<\/p>\n
