The Harber family of North Texas is grieving the tragic loss of sisters Blair (13) and Brooke (11),<\/p>\n
who were swept away during the devastating Texas Hill Country floods on July 4. The girls were found<\/p>\n
15 miles downstream\u2014still holding hands. Their grandparents, Mike and Charlene Harber, remain missing.<\/p>\n
The family had been staying at a riverfront home in Hunt, Texas, when floodwaters rose suddenly. Parents R.J.<\/p>\n
and Annie Harber broke a window to escape and tried to rescue their daughters and parents using a borrowed kayak,<\/p>\n
but the current was too strong. While they and five others survived, the heartbreak of losing Blair and Brooke remains.<\/p>\n
A GoFundMe campaign has raised over $169,000 to support the grieving family. Shared photos capture cherished memories of the girls\u2019<\/p>\n
joyful lives. A joint funeral will be held at St. Rita Catholic Church in Dallas, even as the search continues for their grandparents.<\/p>\n
The floods claimed over 80 lives and left many missing across central Texas. Amid the sorrow, support has poured in from across the country.<\/p>\n
The Harber family\u2019s story stands as a painful reminder of love, loss, and the resilience needed to endure the unimaginable.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
