A growing wall of flowers and photographs honoring the victims of last weekend’s deadly floods has been taking shape in Kerrville over the last 48 hours.
As tears streamed down their faces, community members looked at the photos attached to a growing memorial wall.
Areas badly damaged by July 4th flooding in Texas Hill Country are on alert for a new flash flooding threat through the weekend.
I’m sad because all those people on the wall died,” said little Emma, who traveled to the vigil with loved ones from Fredericksburg.
While he’s been in communities after hurricanes and tornadoes, President Trump said the devastation he saw after an aerial tour of the flood-ravaged Texas Hill Country on Friday was different.
A stretch of chain-link fence along the Guadalupe River in the Texas town of Kerrville has become a focal point for the community's grief.
Officials in Kerr County, where the majority of the deaths from the July 4 flash floods occurred, have yet to detail what actions they took in the early hours of the disaster.
