Memorial and Funeral Services
The Interfaith Chapel is available to all for memorial services, and is available to University-affiliated persons for funeral services when possible. University affiliated persons include students, faculty, staff, retired faculty and staff, trustees, alumni, and the children and grandchildren of the same.
When possible we encourage reservations for memorial services be made for early evenings or weekends. For funeral services, reservations will most often have to be made for Saturdays or Sunday mornings. Weekday reservations may be possible during fall, winter and spring breaks and during the summer, depending on the ability to make satisfactory parking arrangements for guests and for the hearse and other vehicles in the funeral procession. A chapel staff member will be present during your reservation time.
To make a reservation, please complete the online memorial/funeral reservation form. Please be sure to read the Chapel Memorial/Funeral Service Policy before submitting your reservation request.
If you have any questions, please contact our reservations coordinator at (585) 275-4321 or urinterfaithchapel@rochester.edu. Our office hours are 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., Monday through Friday.
