The final missing Camp Mystic counselor, Katherine Ferruzzo, was found deceased after a devastating July Fourth flood in Texas.

The Homeland Security chief denied that a memo she issued in June requiring her to approve FEMA expenditures over $100,000 caused the agency to move more slowly.

Katherine Ferruzzo had been accepted to the University of Texas at Austin for the fall semester and planned to become a Special Education teacher, her family said.

Dozens of people gathered Saturday night at the Coming King Sculpture Prayer Garden in Kerrville, where the sounds of music and spoken prayer filled the air. Faith leaders and residents came together to honor the lives lost and support those still reeling from the flood’s destruction.

Sunday morning recovering efforts were suspended in Kerr County due to heavy rainfall and a new flash flood warning issued for the Hill Country.

Betty Matteson’s four children, nine grandchildren and numerous great-grandchildren have squeezed into her Texas Hill Country home countless times since 1968.

Would a flood scale like those used for hurricanes and tornadoes have prompted different actions by Texas officals and the public before July 4th flooding?
