NOTRE DAME, Ind. – A memorial for James “Jim” Seymour ’69, a record-setting wide receiver and football All-American at the University of Notre Dame, will be held on the campus of Notre Dame at the Basilica of the Sacred Heart on May 6, 2011 at 3:30 p.m. Following the memorial service, there will be a reception in the Morris Inn’s Donor Room.

Seymour passed away this past March after a battle with cancer. He was 64.
