Texas native Pat Green is mourning the loss of his brother, John Burgess, and sister-in-law, Julia Anderson, who were swept away by the devastating flood that hit central Texas. Green’s family members, including his two young nephews, were at a local RV parking in Kerr County when the flash flooding hit. The “Wave on Wave” singer and his wife shared the devastating news on social media that his family was grieving a heartbreaking loss and anxiously awaiting news about his two nephews who are listed as missing. Although rescue workers and residents are still sifting through debris, over 100 people have been confirmed to have lost their lives to the fast-moving waters. There are ways to help out families and victims who are affected by this tragic event at KYGO.com. Several reputable resources have been listed along with links to their specific donation pages such as the Red Cross, Kerr County Relief Fund, Go Fund Me and Pledge.
