NFL family impacted by devastating Texas floods

Texas Flood Claims Life of NFL Family Member: Tavia Hunt Mourns Loss

Tragedy Strikes the Hunt Family

Tavia Hunt, wife of Kansas City Chiefs owner Clark Hunt, confirmed the heartbreaking d**th of a young family member in the Texas floods. The disaster has claimed at least 82 lives so far, including 28 children.

Their 9-year-old cousin, Janie Hunt, lost her life at Camp Mystic, a historic all-girls Christian summer camp along the Guadalupe River in Wimberley.

“Our Hearts Are Broken”

In an emotional Instagram post, Tavia wrote:

“Our hearts are broken by the devastation from the floods in Wimberley and the tragic loss of so many lives — including a precious little Hunt cousin, along with several friends’ little girls.”

She continued by expressing her spiritual grief:

“How do we trust a God who is supposed to be good… but who allows such terrible things to happen — even to children?”
“Scripture is filled with the cries of those whose hearts have been shattered,” she added.

Janie, described as bright-eyed and impossibly sweet, was the great-granddaughter of billionaire oil tycoon William Herbert Hunt.

Camp Mystic: A Site of Joy and Tragedy

Floodwaters surged 30 feet above normal early Friday, striking while over 750 girls were staying at Camp Mystic. The youngest campers, sleeping in riverside cabins, were the most vulnerable.

Among the d**d was Richard “Dick” Eastland, the beloved 70-year-old camp director, who reportedly lost his life trying to rescue the girls. Just a week earlier, the camp had posted videos of children singing and dancing on stage.

Governor Declares Day of Prayer

Texas Governor Greg Abbott declared Sunday a statewide day of prayer, urging citizens to pray for victims, first responders, and the missing.

“We ask Texans to join us in prayer,” he said, promising a full investigation into what went wrong.

Ongoing Search and Rescue Efforts

Emergency teams have rescued more than 850 people so far, with some survivors found clinging to trees. Eight helicopters and an MQ-9 Reaper drone continue to scan the area for missing persons.

However, concerns about the timing of flood alerts are growing.

W*rnings Too Late?

The National Weather Service issued a flood watch Thursday and a flash flood w*rning early Friday, but officials in Kerr County say the warnings came too late.

“This wasn’t a forecasting failure,” meteorologist Matt Lanza told The Texas Tribune.
“It was a breakdown in communication. The warnings didn’t get to people in time.”

Staffing Shortages Under Scrutiny

Reports reveal the local NWS office had been short-staffed after job cuts under the Trump administration. A vital role—the warning coordination meteorologist—has remained unfilled since April.

When asked if federal cuts hindered the response, President Donald Trump deflected.

“That was really the Biden setup,” he said, before softening his tone.
“But I wouldn’t blame Biden either. This is a 100-year catastrophe.”

Grief Amid the Chaos

As the d**th toll could surpass 100, families like the Hunts are left grieving amid unanswered questions and lingering heartache.

“We are clinging to memories, and to faith,” Tavia Hunt wrote.
