KTSA TALK HOST MOURNS LOSS OF HIS SON

  

by Jeannie Jakle of the San Antonio Express News

  

SAN ANTONIO - Longtime San Antonio radio personality Trey Ware (below) and his wife Nancy suffered a devastating loss this past week.  

 

  

Ware, his voice filled with emotion, said he will bury his only son, Justin, on Monday, May 5th. He was 28.

  

The service will take place in Schertz. For details, read here.   

  

"We're taking it day by day, minute by minute, that's all we can do," Ware, who's helmed the morning talk show on KTSA (550 AM) for 21 years, said tearfully in a phone conversation.

Circumstances surrounding his son's death are being kept private at this time.

  

It's the second such loss for the Ware family in recent years.

On April 22 of 2009, their daughter, Rebekah, died. She was 20.

"They were the only two we had," Ware said, adding: "April is not a good month for us. We want to expunge April from the calendar."

  

Trey was happy to have spent time with Justin (in the above photo with his dad that was snapped on Sunday, April 27th) before he died.

  

"He was the most talented person I've met in my life. I say that as a proud daddy, but also as a person who knows talent," said Ware, who's been on the radio here both as a music disc jockey and a talk show host for 39 years.

  

"It didn't matter what Justin chose to do when he decided to do something, he was the best at it."

McManus Note:  I cannot begin to fathom the depths of Trey and Nancy's grief.  Please join me and pray that God would comfort them as they mourn the death of Justin.  Psalm 55:22 promises that if we cast our burden on the Lord, He will sustain us.

One day God also promises in Revelation 21:4 that "He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away."
