The Jefferson Educational Society brings one of the best of the region to the Global Summit series with Jim Kelly, a Professional Football Hall of Fame quarterback who spent his entire career as a Buffalo Bill. He led the Bills to an unprecedented four straight AFC championships during his 11 years in the National Football League.His biggest hurdles weren't always on the field, though. In “A Journey of Perseverance” Kelly will talk about his career from his time growing up in East Brady, Pennsylvania, to a career-threatening injury in college, along with his battles off the green. After his retirement, Kelly survived three battles of cancer and lost his son Hunter at the age of 8 to a rare nervous system disease.
His tale of leadership and the power of faith, friends, family, and fans will take place at 7 p.m. Oct. 22. The location will be in the Yehl Ballroom at the Waldron Campus Center on Gannon University’s campus.
