The killing of a grandfather and his four grandsons at their Centerville ranch by an escaped convict last week has left Tomball residents mourning the loss of a large family who was active in church, sports and the Tomball school district.
People gather for a community vigil at Tomball High School for the five members of an area family who were killed by an escaped TDCJ prisoner Friday, June 3, 2022 in Tomball. Members of a Tomball-area family were the apparent victims of an escaped prisoner who authorities believe killed four boys, all Tomball ISD students, one a recent graduate of the school, and their grandfather on Thursday at their weekend home in Centerville.
Family members posted photos of Mark Collins hugging and carrying his grandkids in the sun and posing with them for photos in the snow. Waylon was headed to Texas A&M University, according to the website for his pressure washing business, established to help him raise money for college.
