Our family is grief stricken at the loss of our beloved brother, Tranum. He was caring, kind and humorous and loved his family as well as his many students and players.

We are thankful to the authorities and police for their hard work and hope that questions can soon be answered.

I went to school with Tranum from elementary school through high school. Tranum was very popular and excelled at sports. God bless all the families involved.

I can still remember Tranum as the shy, sweet boy at my daughter's first birthday party, that grew into a handsome, caring and ambitious young man...his smile could light up a room. My heart breaks for his Mama and the rest of his family and I am truly praying that God gives you peace at this very difficult time. God bless you Scott...
