"Tragic Home Explosion in Michigan Claims Family, Leaves Teen Survivor"

A respected forestry scientist, Don Bragg, his wife Hope, and their two adult children, Kenneth and Elizabeth, known for their contributions to archaeology in Arkansas, were tragically killed in a suspected gas explosion at a home in Michigan. The incident occurred while they were visiting for the holidays, leaving their 16-year-old son and Hope's father in stable and critical conditions, respectively. The Bragg family was remembered for their generosity and support within the archaeological community, and plans for a scholarship and memorial are underway to honor their legacy.
