Virginia honors slain players in memorial service on campus
Lavel Davis Jr., D’Sean Perry and Devin Chandler were remembered during a memorial service in Charlottesville as great teammates who wore constant smiles and sought to brighten the lives of those around them, from fellow players to other students and fans. In between, administrators and teammates of the slain men offered stories and reflections about their football brothers. The shootings set off a manhunt and 12-hour campus lockdown before Jones was apprehended. Mourners were allowed in an hour before the scheduled start of the service and heard musical performances from school choral groups and the MLK Community Choir. Photos of the players as children and in action on the field scrolled across the video board.
