My maternal grandfather was one of six brothers.
They all died kind of young. One fell off an oil derrick. One went down in a bomber over Germany during WWII. Two died from Lou Gehrigs disease. My grandfather died from stomach cancer. By the time I was born only one was still alive.
He was gunned down in a small church in a small town in East Texas. Some crazy bastard came in shooting with an M-16. Shot my grandad's brother first. Also killed several other guys and a little girl before they took him down.
First funeral I ever went to.
I was around 7 or so.
I read somewhere once that it was the first mass shooting that ever occurred in a church in North America.
