Opps, didn't know it had been posted. sorry

But I've known several fairly mental persons from River Oaks, when I lived around there in the 70s, but the ones who go to U.T. seem to hit the news more where I live now ... (That's how it was on the news up here today)

Neighbors said Shank had recently dropped out of the University of Texas.

He played lacrosse at UT and Houston’s Kinkaid School, where he graduated in 2008. Classmates from Kinkaid describe him as a well-liked student who had a lot of friends.

Nancy Shank did charity work in Houston and was a regular at Bible study, according to a neighbor. She is also survived by her husband, Daniel, and their daughter, a freshman at UT.

Shank, a former University of Texas student, had been hospitalized at least twice this year for mental health issues, Roberts said.

Neighbors said Shank went to the elite Kinkaid School before attending UT. A Texas Lacrosse website identifies him as a midfielder on the team.


Doesn't really relate to firearms, but I found it sad.
