Eternal rest grant unto Mary Grace. Such a beautiful name for a beautiful girl.

Derm, I am very sorry for your loss. Your faith in Christ and finding peace knowing Mary Grace is now with the Lord has been an inspiration to me and so many on here. I will continue praying for you and Mary Grace's family. Pink ribbon on the way.

You have my prayers and my sincerest sympathies, Dermdoc.

A lot of people from all over are viewing this thread, in a few days it has close to 1.5 million views. We learned from Covid that people from all over look at Texags during crisis since for the most part it is a reliable and quick source of information.

I say this as a reminder that there are a lot of eyes on what is being said and this needs to be remembered, i.e. we have reporters DMing people on here.

We are currently vacationing in Switzerland and catch up on this thread each morning before we head out. God bless all of the lives lost and loved ones affected.

We don't have any pink ribbons but we did buy our daughter a pink sweatshirt yesterday and just gave it to her to wear today. God bless Mary Grace.

Derm, been out of pocket most of today and just saw this post. Finished getting caught up on the thread and echo my heartfelt condolences for you and your family.

I pray you can take comfort in knowing Mary Grace is in perfect peace and joy sitting at the feet of Jesus. Her life has made a difference and has glorified God. Just look at the thousands of people praying in unison on this thread, from all over the planet. Some for the first time in many years. The Holy Spirit has moved in people's' lives in miraculous ways and has brought people together from every walk of life. As difficult and heartbreaking as this news is, Mary Grace's life and your family's strong faith is a testimony to the love and grace of God. His light has shined brightly through Mary Grace and the life she lived.

May the peace of God that surpasses all understanding guard your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus now and in the days ahead.

Rest in peace Mary Grace Baker and Hadley Hanna.

I've been dreading this news, Derm. There are no adequate words. I'm so sorry for your loss and the loss of so many others. I will tie a pink ribbon as well. Prayers for peace and closure.

derm, so very sorry for your loss.

I've read every word of this thread, and your faith through all of this has been incredible to see.

For whatever it's worth, I can't even remember the last time I prayed but I just did for Mary Grace and everyone else involved.

I am so deeply sorry to all of those affected. I have followed this thread clinging for positive news however the greater plan is not for me to understand. Specifically to the Ags that were affected by this, please know while I have not met many of yall I have prayed deeply for you and your families. I am in Brazil at the moment and will look for a pink ribbon and a tree.

In the group pic of Bubble Inn, with all the girls identified, there is an Ellen Getten.

I haven't seen her name on any of the lists. Was she found?

Also, Katherine Ferruzzo (their counselor) is still missing.

Ellen Getten has not been found.

I noticed she wasn't listed anywhere as well, but heard from someone who works with her dad that she is still missing.

I just wanted to post a partial overview of the resources that have come to help the State of Texas.

Thank you all.

I don't have a tree or a ribbon in international waters. So, a stock photo will have to do for now.

This sound was shared earlier in the thread, but was sung live at CMA fest and it was so moving.

Hard Fought Hallelujah

Dermdoc,

How does one find their way on a volunteer search team?

Right now what I'm seeing is the need for people with skills in search and recovery.

The Salvation Army in Kerrville is organizing the volunteer effort:

Anyone with Bonfire confirm this?

Quote:

To those of you who support Bonfire, know that you are a critical part of this. This is what your support for these Aggies achieves, far beyond the Woods…

I got a call yesterday from a group with Kerr county's disaster response and recovery operations. They desperately needed working experience in timber, brush, and debris. Ideally, a self-directing group with an established command structure, and regular practice in inhospitable conditions. Of course, they were looking for Bonfire. Their commitment not being mine to give, I connected with student leadership to see if they were in a position and willing to help. I found that they were already in that area - without ever having been asked - and had already been working elsewhere. They were eager for an objective that best leveraged their unique abilities in service to others. They immediately connected with the coordinator. With their new mission, they flew back to Aggieland, resupplied, and an advance team was back on site that evening with equipment, and worked until dark. Coordinating with local teams, that night they refined their plans for the next day. More Aggies with the required operational experience would be joining them the next day and through the week. Having a plan to work to maximum effect and safety were imperative.

The situation is constantly changing, but as of now, they operate as a mobile tactical debris removal team, clearing the way for dogs, searchers, and rescuers. They have been briefed on what to expect. They know the hazards, but they likewise know their capacity - and so their duty - to meet them. I spoke with them last night and am struck by their resolve and sober measure of the situation and their role in it. I am in awe of their courage and selfless service, and eternally grateful for the endlessly-serving Aggies of Bonfire.

I will be connecting with them again this evening when their day's work is done to see what they need. I'll update accordingly.

If Dion says it, take it as completely legit when it comes to any matter Bonfire related.

---

Correct. Dion is one of the official administrators of Student Bonfire and still basically runs everything for Student Bonfire.

---

I'm still trying to catch up from last night, so it might be somewhere in the thread I haven't got to yet. But, is there a direct way to contribute to the care and feeding of these Aggies and to support their mission? If so, please post it or DM me. If there are specific needs (tools, gas, or whatever), please let that be known as well.

These people are the embodiment of the Aggie Code and I would be proud to help support them!

Thanks!
