I am seeing little local SAHM businesses making T-shirts for sale with victims names/images and claiming the money made will go to the families, but no known connections to the families

Most likely you are seeing scammers out of India or Pakistan, claiming to be someone who's identity they stole off Facebook
Those grifters will emerge, but that isn't what I have seen so far.

So far what I am seeing is this grift from actual locals.

A strong word of caution for anyone that decides to communicate with the press: please reserve the right to proofread any story before it is published.

My wife was a teacher for a high school student who drowned in a flood in our hometown. She granted an interview with a reporter to describe what a kind, sweet person the student was. However, she was misquoted (reporter actually made up some of her statements), which caused some very hurtful feelings for the parents.
I was interviewed for a news story about 14 years ago. I asked the reporter to send me a rough draft before publication so I could review and make sure he got everything right. He said he would, but he didn't. And he misquoted me. Never again.

A lot of times it's out of the reporter's hands, an editor is making that call (also the headline is very frequently out of the reporter's hands as well).

I've been following a former coworker on Facebook. Her sister along with 4 family members (one a child) have been missing from the RV park in Kerrville that was hit so hard. Earlier she posted that her BILs wallet and RV keys had been found. Just now she posted that one family member has been found, deceased, that's all she knows now. Prayers for the Knetsch and Meyers family.


I grew up down the road from the Knetsch family. G used to give me a ride to school. We farmed their land. I am praying for their safety.

Glenn Juenke - thank you.


This man needs to be formally recognized at Kyle this fall in front of 100k+ with a video story on the Jumbotron of what he did to save so many young girls. Legend.
He should be awarded the Medal of Freedom, maybe at next year's SOTU.

2 Corinthians 1:34 (ESV)

"Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ,
the Father of mercies and God of all comfort,
who comforts us in all our affliction,
so that we may be able to comfort those who are in any affliction,
with the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God."

I think this does belong in the doing ones job more than heroism.

The rest of the girls got driven out by bus a few hours later from the same location.

The rescue swimmers and the like don't quite get enough credit here, and they should be called out where they put their lives in danger and for their tremendous skill.

Blessings to you and your family and don't second-guess what you did. You were doing the best you could in the moment and sounds like you used more discretion than many others might when dealing with the media.

The media vultures looking for tears at the 10 PM news or the headline on the daily paper can go **** themselves.

I don't think it's a stretch to say that millions of people are grieving for you.

May all the prayers and tears offered for your family and all the other families shake the heavens for the love, mercy, and peace you need…now and for all time.

My family and I are sending you and your family so much strength and love from Houston. We are complete strangers but are thinking of you and asking God to wrap His arms around you all.
