A statement was released from the Cowboys in regards to the Landry family,- “The Jones family and the Dallas Cowboys extend their deepest sympathies and heartfelt condolences to the Landry family on the passing of Alicia Landry.”
It was said the two met on a blind date at the University of Texas, in which they described as “a match literally made in heaven.”
