SHARE AUSTIN, Texas — It has been almost two years since Carla Byrne lost her younger brother, 40-year-old Joe Griffith. "His favorite things were cheesy dad jokes, actually. He was good at impersonations. He was a godly man," Byrne told Spectrum News 1. But even after all this time it still feels surreal, she says. “It just still feels like somebody is going to pinch us and say it was just a bad dream. But, I think what's really critical for people to know is that we're so arrogant as a people that we think this is not going to happen to me," Byrne said.
