Texas SAE Death.
Tyler Cross, one of our pledges from Georgia died after falling from his 5th floor apartment at the University Towers freshmen dorms. Police don't suspect any foul play.....but it is truly tragic and is a total shock to us all. Tyler was a great guy and had a lot going for him. I'd ask that you all keep his family in your prayers.

It is a shock. I played against him in the ADPi kickball tournament. He seemed like a really good kid. My thoughts are with you guys and the family.

This is so sad to hear about.
It seems that more deaths are attributated to falling than anyother type of death.
My condolences go out to the Brothers of SAE and Mr. Cross's family.

Actually, it should be posted high and wide to let Greeks know what can happen in a snap second and a person dies.
Maybe it will be something to think about.
As I mentioned, the deaths by falling from buildings is the highest % of any deaths.
Is it sad, you damn right it is.
This young man did not have the experience to live and enjoy the life He wanted or was ahead of him.
