Two young sisters, Blair (13) and Brooke Harber (11), were among the victims of the devastating flash flood at Camp Mystic in Texas. Before they died, both girls sent their parents a heartbreaking final message: **“I love you.”**
The flood, triggered by sudden, intense rainfall, overwhelmed emergency protocols as water surged 26 feet in just 45 minutes on July 4. Despite warnings, the scale and speed caught everyone off guard.
Camp Mystic, once a cherished summer retreat near the Guadalupe River, became the site of tragedy. At least 27 campers and counselors were confirmed dead, with 11 still missing. The Harber sisters were later found in Kerrville—holding hands.
The camp, alongside local and state agencies, continues search efforts. Families, responders, and the community are mourning, as the disaster stands as a haunting reminder of nature’s unpredictability—and the lives cut far too short.
