Blair and Brooke were students at St. Rita’s Catholic School in Dallas, where their mother Annie serves as an instructional specialist. The family had taken a short summer trip and, like many others affected by the storm, could not have anticipated the scale of the disaster.
In statements shared by the family, Blair was remembered as a bright student with a kind and generous heart, while Brooke was described as someone who brought joy to everyone around her. Both girls were known for their strong faith and had brought their rosary beads with them on the trip.
The Harber family is now leaning on their faith and the support of loved ones as they process their loss and wait for news about Mike and Charlene.
As Texas continues recovery efforts and search operations in the wake of record-setting floods, the Harber family’s story has become a symbol of love, resilience, and the strength of community during times of unimaginable hardship.
