The family of the Dayton, Ohio shooter have apologised for releasing an "insensitive" obituary that fails to mention the "terrible tragedy".
Connor Betts, 24, was a "funny, articulate and intelligent man", the tribute said.
The killing of his sister and eight others in a shooting on 4 August was not acknowledged.
Conner & Koch, a funeral home in Bellbrooke, Ohio, posted the obituary to its website on Tuesday.
A separate obituary posted on the website for their 22-year-old daughter, Megan - who was among her brother's victims - did not mention the shooting either. Friends of Megan say she identified as male and went by the name Jordan Cofer, according to US media reports.
What did the obituary say?
"A funny, articulate and intelligent man with striking blue eyes and a kind smile, Connor Stephen Betts, age 24, of Bellbrook, passed away Sunday, August 4th, 2019," the obituary said.
He was an avid reader, enjoyed swimming, was a Boy Scout, was in his high school marching band, played Xbox games and loved watching the Fox animated show "Bob's Burgers", the posting said, according to US media reports.
He "will be missed immensely by his friends, family, and especially his good dog Teddy" the tribute said.

A gay magazine identified this on the morning of the shooting along with some of her classmates.
Plenty of red flags. And nobody did anything. And, yes, Ohio does have involuntary judicial hospitalization, IOW, a version of Florida'state Baker Act.
just buy his sorry ass in a unmarked grave an call it good.
Except all the transgender stuff was on the daughter’s sm page and HER friends’ pages.
The cops, aka FBI, can’t/won’t verify it because it doesn’t fit the narrative for it being Trump’s fault.
They posted a feminine looking photo of her instead of one of her more recent ones sporting a butch haircut and manly attire.
I live in the next suburb over from Betts. The Dayton Police department says the transgender rumor remains a rumor, there is no hard evidence that it’s true, and Megan Betts was at the bar with a male friend who survived. I see no reason to doubt their investigation at this point.
The Dayton Police are investigating facts, and are not getting their information by gleaning hearsay from other news wire services like the BBC admits to.
The facts being covered by the Dayton police are not coming from the FBI.
Her sm accounts were seen by many of us but whatever.
People who received participation trophies as children have lost all sense of decency as adults.
Wednesday’s cop-shooter in Philly had a six-time felony record for illegal gun possession. He never should have been let out after the first time: Today’s Leftist cries for gun “control” are a prime example of Govt going after the innocent because they never punish the guilty. SORRY! No WAY, Jose!
