Derm and aviation - my prayers are with you. May God bless your family and may a miracle come to pass with the safe return of your loved ones.

I think these officials speaking are doing well. This is a brutal situation.
One day at a time.

We have one of the best disaster response capabilities in the country, lead by incredible people.

All of which is under TAMUS.

How can it be 23 to 25? Do they not know how many and which kids were there?


Things are chaotic. "Missing" reports are coming from many directions. Lines of communication are sporadic. Search and rescue are doing their best but have a lot of moving parts in a treacherous environment with a lot of sadness.

There are also many different agencies operating here, all reporting to the state, and they might be sharing different counts based on their best information.

It's the right thing then for the state to give a range. They don't want to offer false hope or false alarm and a range reflects the uncertainty and chaos on the ground.

One of the wild cards is other families around there or adults who may have tried to intervene to help and end up lost.

I heard the Eastland son, son of the owners, has been found safe. This was first hand from a cousin.

Continuing to hold out hope and pray for those impacted, and those risking themselves to find those still in danger.

Thank you so much. This is heartwrenching. My grandchildren (9, 7, and 5) are spending the night with me and the older two boys who know what is happening, are asking about how you rescue someone and are very, very upset about Wynne. She lives 3 houses down from them. They don't want her to be afraid in the dark and are afraid she is alone. Explaining this is horrible and the darker it gets, the more upset we all are. I just put them to bed and we lifted prayers for Wynne and Dermdoc's Mary Grace, and all the others. It made me so sad when they were happy to see that Aggies are helping with search and rescue as we are holding on to faith and hope.

Please keep lifting prayers.

My heart hurts so much in this situation that I can barely put together coherent thoughts or prayers.

I'm reminded of Romans 8:26, that the Spirit intercedes when words fail us. Praying for all of the missing, and especially those sweet girls and their families; especially Derm and AviationAg.

Tell them about the searchers having special goggles (flir) at night that make it so easy to find them and keep them safe.

I did! I told them that it can even be easier at night because of heat signatures. That was a good distraction as they then wanted to understand the technologies.

Prayers for all the victims and their families and friends. I grew up in Beaumont and many of the girls I went to school with would go to those camps during the summer.

I read that several of the missing kids are from Beaumont.

This is one of the saddest days I can remember in a long time….

Maybe old news but a friend of mine was just reunited with their son who was at La Junta so I guess those kids were able to get into town finally.

As is her father, Blake, who I've known for almost 50 years. We hadn't spoken in years but were FB friends. I just read on here tonight that he recently passed as well.

Oh no, didn't realize he has passed. Sat next to him at final four a couple years ago and he told me about his dad playing for A&M. Very nice guy.

Not announced at the press conference but the family of Renee Smajstrla have publicly announced her body was found.

Damn. I hope this is not the case, but I am about 95% sure that is the daughter of one of my clients. Same last name and he lives in Kerrville and has a daughter her age. Man this is awful.
