In recognition of the profoundly meaningful gift that our donors make to science, public health and the greater good, we hold a memorial service every two to three years for family members.
We hold a non-denominational ceremony remembering those individuals whose generous gift made it possible for our students to further their education and our faculty to advance the practice of medicine.
This ceremony is held every two to three years. Family members of those individuals whose cremains are being interred are invited to attend. A reception follows.
For those donors who designate that our Anatomical Gift Program inter their ashes, we do so at the Skinnerville Cemetery on UB's North Campus. We encourage family members to consider these grounds a family site and, as such, visit and place flowers anytime.
Family members will be notified of the date and time of the next service. Those who cannot attend in person will be invited to watch it on Zoom or YouTube.
