Unfortunately, your photos did not come through! There are a couple of possibilities of what could have went wrong.
Sometimes, some specimens are not as hardy to disease as others, such as Verticillium Wilt Disease. It can destroy one or two, but not all of your shrubs.
Another thing to consider is pests in the area. Moles, voles, and other burrowing creatures can destroy roots or cause infections while doing so.
I could recommend taking samples and photos up to your local extension service. They may be able to help:
