Victims of the massacre at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, Texas are being laid to rest nearly a week after the shooting left 19 children and two adults dead. Nineteen of those killed during the shooting will be buried in caskets made by an Edna, Texas-based company called SoulShine Industries, run by Trey Ganem.
Ganem told CNN that he was contacted by the Texas Funeral Directors Association to make custom caskets on the day of the shooting and said that he and his 25-year-old son have been working non-stop to get all of the caskets designed, assembled, ready and delivered to funeral homes. According to Ganem, the caskets were purchased from a Georgia-based company that worked for 20 hours straight to get them produced. Then when they arrived in Texas he finished all 19, working three days straight over the holiday weekend after they arrived on Friday.
