Dear Members of the University Community,

We are writing to share details for an all-University Memorial Service being planned for Saturday, Nov. 19 at 3:30 p.m. in John Paul Jones Arena. The service will offer an opportunity to come together as a community to honor the lives of Devin Chandler, Lavel Davis, Jr., and D’Sean Perry, as well as the two students injured in the shooting, Mike Hollins and Marlee Morgan. The event is open to all and will also be livestreamed. We hope you will join us and have included additional details below.

Sincerely, 

The University of Virginia Office of Major Events
