CENTER POINT, Texas (KXAN) — While local, state and federal assets have been active across central Texas in the aftermath of Friday’s deadly floods, volunteers are also helping out with efforts coordinated through first responders.

On Sunday, Charlie Wolfe and Johnny Fjord assisted in Center Point, Texas.

“There was concern there was a body in the debris pile,” Fjord said. “It’s definitely a sobering thought. You know that it’s either going to be someone you know or someone’s child you know, so you know it’s going to be very sobering for sure.”

He and Wolfe worked with a group coordinated by a local fire department.

Center Point was also a primary location for various search and rescue efforts Sunday. It’s downstream from where the floods began.

According to the latest update Sunday, the death toll was at 68 in Kerr County, including 28 children. Some of the victims still haven’t been identifies, and the total number of people unaccounted for is unknown.

“We’re just here to serve and make sure everyone is recovered, so we can give these families some closure. So that’s really where my mindset is at,” Wolfe said.
