Our dear friend and cherished mascot, Uga VII, passed away suddenly on Thursday, Nov. 19, 2009. The UGA College of Veterinary Medicine joins the Seiler family and all of Bulldog Nation in grieving for Uga VII.

"Seven" was only four years old. And while he only served as mascot for a mere 18 months, he will live on forever in the hearts of UGA fans everywhere.

Within hours of the official announcement of Uga VII’s death, donations were already pouring into the College; people who were giving toward the future of this great institution, in memory of our friend.

It is well known by all who grace our doorstep that we are in great need of a new Veterinary Medical Learning Center that will include a new animal hospital. This building is needed so that we can better fulfill our mission of educating tomorrow’s veterinarians who will take care of the growing population of animals in Georgia.

Frank W. "Sonny" Seiler, his wife, Cecelia Seiler, and the Seiler family request that in lieu of sending flowers or other gestures commemorating Uga’s memory, that you instead make a gift to the UGA College of Veterinary Medicine to support our building campaign.

100% of your tax-deductible gift will go toward the building of our new Veterinary Medical Learning Center. The Seilers will be informed of your generosity.

If you would prefer to mail a check, please make it payable to: UGA Foundation; in the "memo/for" area, please reference: Veterinary Medicine Hospital Building Fund (Uga VII).

You may mail your check to:

Office of Development
UGA College of Veterinary Medicine
