On Thursday, teammates, coaches, friends and family gathered to remember the life of Solomon Jackson.
A viewing and service for the deceased UB football player was held at The Well Buffalo Church, located near North Campus, Thursday and allowed the team to pay their final respects to their fallen teammate. Pastor Darrick Castronova led the service as music was performed and coaches, teammates and family spoke about Jackson’s life.
UB Athletics said Jackson’s family asked media not to attend the event, but The Well provided a live video stream of the service.
Jackson, a sophomore defensive end, died on Feb.
