KERR COUNTY, Texas (KXAN) — Ryen Brake and his father Robert have spent every day since July 4 searching for Ryen’s grandparents and Robert’s parents – Robert Sr. and Joni.
On Wednesday, they learned Robert’s body had been found, and on Thursday, they learned Joni’s body was found.
“Since July 4, our family has lived in a world of heartbreak,” Ryen said. “But we’ve also lived in a world of kindness.”
In the midst of tragedy, we’ve witnessed the most powerful reminder: There is still beauty in this world. There is still goodness. There is still hope.

Robert Sr. and Joni were camping at the HTR Campgrounds in Ingram when the floods hit. Robert described his parents as “patriots through and through.” Robert Sr. was in the Air Force and Joni was a base nurse.
“If you want to honor our parents/grandparents, please do this: Smile at someone today. Call a loved one. Walk up to a stranger and simply say hello. Kindness costs nothing – but its impact is immeasurable,” Ryen said.
