Many of us hold fond memories of Professor Andrew Nash who died, age 66, on 2 November 2010.

Andrew was a Glasgow graduate, and enjoyed a long and distinguished career as a clinican and teacher in the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine. From 2002 to 2008, Andrew served as Clerk of Senate and as Vice Principal (Learning and Teaching) from 2002 to 2004.  He was Pro-Vice Principal from 2008 until his retiral in September 2009. 

He made a tremendous contribution to the University where his exemplary dedication and integrity earned him widespread respect and admiration. 

An choral and organ concert on Friday 3 June has been organised in his memory, and all University staff, students and friends are invited to attend. The concert will feature the renowned University Chapel Choir, and acclaimed organist Kevin Bowyer, with James Grossmith and Ben Fowler.

The concert will be held in the University's Memorial Chapel, and will start at 7.30pm. Please come along early as the Chapel is sure to be packed out. According to the famil's wishes, proceeds from donations will go to the Chapel Choir, and the Small Animal Hospital.
