really, really depends on what kind of temple. reform? what you'd wear to a church funeral. orthodox? long sleeves and a mid-length to long skirt. conservative? i'd tend towards the orthodox but depends. to be safe, cover your arms to below the elbow and yours legs to mid-calf, preferrably with a skirt. also, if it's orthodox, it's very gendered, so follow the women not the men. and don't touch any men unless they reach out first.

if it's reform, there's nothing special. the jewish men will probably be expected to wear a kippah, but they should be a basket at the entrance.

Thank you! It's reform, so looks like the women planning to wear black suits should be fine.

Yeah, totally. There's really nothing special for a reform synagogue -- just standard funeral attire.
