Solomon David Gallagher, age 37, passed away on March 25, 2026.

He was born on November 19, 1988, in Mississippi to Tammy Gallagher Smith and Terry Gallagher.

He later moved to Denver, Colorado, at the age of 25.

Solomon was a creative and free-spirited soul who found joy in music, art and the outdoors. He had a deep love for playing music and creating art. A talented musician, he played the guitar and many other instruments by ear. This gift came naturally to him, as did his ability to draw. He was passionate about rock climbing and used it as a way to escape the problems of the world and connect with others.

He had a strong passion for knowledge, to learn and understand, and to share with others the knowledge he obtained. This led him to start college, where he received his Associate of Science degree from the Community College of Denver and furthered his education at the University of Colorado.

Solomon had a passion for life and a unique ability to see others in ways that many could not. His heart was full of Love, which many felt and experienced, and he made a lasting impression on everyone he met.

He is survived by his loving mother, Tammy Gallagher Smith; his son, Isaac Rutter; his brother Jesse Gallagher; Nikki Gallagher; five nephews; one niece; his stepfather Joseph L Smith. He was preceded in death by his father Terry W Gallagher.

Solomon will be remembered for his love of others, his artistic spirit, and the meaningful connections he shared with those around him.

In accordance with his wishes, he will be cremated. A memorial gathering will be announced at a later date.

Solomon would have wanted to leave this message behind: that we strive to treat one another with kindness, compassion, understanding, forgiveness, and love, to live in peace and love, as Christ taught us.
