A father left heartbreaking voicemails for his children after he realized he and his wife were being swept away by the deadly Texas floods.
Jeff Ramsey, 61, and his wife Tanya, 46, were camping at HTR RV Park in Kerrville with their whippet dog, Chloe, when the Guadalupe River flooded and surged by up to 30 feet above its usual water level on July 4.
The father used his final moments to send a message to his two children, Jake, 24, and Rachel, 23, letting them know he loved them as the waters raged in the background.
More than 160 people are believed to be missing days after a destructive wall of water took the lives of at least 111 people.
At least 27 little girls and their counselors from the century-old, all-girls Christian camp tragically died when the ‘tsunami wall of water’ struck the campsite before daybreak on Friday.
Five campers and one 19-year-old counselor are among at least 173 people still missing in the floodwaters five days on from the tragedy.
Officials in Texas are facing mounting questions about whether they did enough to get people out of harm’s way.
Governor Greg Abbott has offered a sassy excuse for why he won’t entertain questions about who is ‘to blame’ for the devastating floods.
Abbott held a press conference on Tuesday to update the public on the devastating death toll, vowing to stop at nothing until ‘every person’ is accounted for.
But when he was asked who was ‘to blame’ for the tragedy, Abbott went on the offensive, using a football analogy to warn the reporter that only ‘losers’ cast blame in a time like this.
It comes as a chilling new flash flood killed at least three people in New Mexico Tuesday night.
