Clark Hunt’s relative Janie was a camper there, one of the handful whose body has been recovered. The whereabouts of at least 10 others remain unknown.
Another victim from the camp was Dick Eastland, the camp owner and manager who perished while trying to save some of the campers.
His family has owned and operated the camp for more than 50 years. Dick Eastland is being remembered as a selfless father figure.
So far, the number of people who lost their lives is 82, but dozens are still missing.

The owner of the Kansas City Chiefs, whose star tight end Travis Kelce is famously together with Taylor Swift, did not incur any damages to their property.
Clark and Tavia Hunt, along with their three children, live in Dallas, Texas, which was not affected by the flood.
But it is part of what’s known as Flash Flood Ally, a portion of the state of Texas that is prone to flooding.

According to an interview in The Conversation with Hatim Sharif, a hydrologist and engineer at the University of Texas, the crescent-shaped strip of land starts with Dallas, then cuts south, southwest through Austin and San Antonio.
“The hills are steep, and the water moves quickly when it floods”, he said, adding that since the soil doesn’t soak up that much water, those creeks can rise quickly.
“When those creeks converge on a river, they can create a surge of water that wipes out homes and washes away cars and, unfortunately, anyone in its path,” Sharif told the publication.
