My friend Bernard Brady, who has died aged 93, was a long-serving chaplain at the University of Nottingham and later a parish priest to the Catholic church in Wollaton in the western part of the city.
As chaplain Bernard had an ecumenical heart, always working closely with colleagues from other churches in the Nottingham area – a stance that was appreciated by the students, many of whom keenly took part in his ecumenical trips to Florence, Rome, Israel and Berlin.
