Matthew Mitchell, Thy’s husband and co-owner of Traveler’s Table and Traveler’s Cart, also died from a gunshot wound. But his death has been ruled a suicide.

Authorities have not detailed the circumstances surrounding the deaths. Houston police reported finding the family of four inside their River Oaks-area home Monday evening, describing the incident as a possible murder-suicide.

The deaths sent shockwaves through Houston’s restaurant community, where the couple helped turn Traveler’s Table in Montrose into one of the city’s better-known dining spots. In the days following their deaths, friends, customers and members of Houston’s hospitality industry gathered to remember Thy, who many described as the heart of the restaurant.

The case has also renewed conversations online around domestic violence, mental health and the ripple effects these tragedies leave behind for families and communities.
