“Our entire community grieves with the Lytal family, to whom we extend our deepest sympathies and unwavering support. We know this loss will be felt across our campus and beyond,” wrote the university on social media.

The Lytal family has established the Kellyanne Elizabeth Lytal Memorial Foundation to donate to causes that mattered to the young girl, according to a post on X from Trinity University.

On Monday, Trinity University announced that one of its students, Aidan Heartfield, also died in the flooding. 

Heartfield was a marketing major, and was set to graduate from Trinity in 2026.

Two UTSA students, architecture student Reese Manchaca and management student Ella Cahill, also tragically lost their lives in the floods.

“It is important for us have the opportunity to gather as a UTSA community to reflect on this devastating tragedy, pay tribute to the lives and contributions of those we've lost, and process the overwhelming news that has so greatly impacted our campuses,” said LT Robinson, senior vice provost for student affairs and dean of students. “Let us also draw strength from one another. Together, we can begin the healing and provide the comfort and support that is so important during these challenging times.”
