Dallas-area residents are demonstrating widespread support for Texas flood victims, as Governor Abbott declares a day of prayer and rescue efforts continue with aid from various departments and the Salvation Army.

T wo sisters from Dallas — 13-year-old Blair Harber and 11-year-old Brooke Harber — were among the dozens of lives lost in the catastrophic floods that swept through Central Texas early Friday.

The devastating Texas floods have claimed 82 lives so far, with several others remaining unaccounted for. Full-fledged families, who were on camping trips for the July 4 weekend in the Hill Country, have been upended. Among the dead were two sisters from Dallas, whose bodies were found together with their ‘hands locked’ to each other.
