A farewell funeral service for historian Godfrey Wettinger was held praesente cadavere at the University’s main quadrangle this afternoon.

It was the first ceremony of its kind to be held at the university.

In line with his wish for a secular funeral, family and friends joined the academic community in paying their last respects to the university’s senior fellow and former Professor of Medieval History within the Department of History.
