As officials continue to verify fatalities and search for people missing following the Texas Hill Country floods on Friday, locals have begun to recount stories of extraordinary bravery and heroism during a weekend filled with distress.
Julian Ryan and his fiancé Christina Wilson were at their home in Ingram, when water began rushing through the doors.
When the water levels rapidly rose, 27-year-old Ryan broke through a window to rescue Wilson, their children, and his mother from the submerged house, as reported by Houston outlet KHOU-11.
Texas Gov. Greg Abbott on Saturday issued a proclamation declaring Sunday a “day of prayer,” in response to the floods.
“Texans are recognized for their faith, strength, and resilience,” Abbott stated. “Even amidst the raging floodwaters, neighbors stepped in to rescue, comfort, and provide hope. In times of loss, we lean on God for comfort, healing, and strength. I urge every Texan to join me in prayer this Sunday—for the lives lost, for those still missing, for the recovery of our communities, and for the safety of those on the front lines.”
Here are some of those still missing, as of Saturday night.
