Tragedy in Burnet County Ends in Masonry Honors
In Fairland last Tuesday a fatal shooting occurred between John O'Donnell and Chris Lacy. Lacy lay dead beside his car on the public road with four bullet wounds. O'Donnell surrendered to authorities in Austin. Lacy, a respected Burnet County figure, was active in the Methodist Church and Masonic orders. He was survived by his mother, three brothers, and two sisters. The Marble Falls Messenger notes the community’s sorrow and extends condolences.
