Hero dad left heartbreaking goodbye voicemails to his kids before tragically dying in Texas floods

A brother has recalled the devastation of hearing a voicemail for him and his sister from his father, as he succumbed to the Texas floods.

The Texas floods has devastated communities, and resulted in a death toll of at least 109 people, with more than 170 people still missing.

The floods occurred in the early morning of July 4 after the Guadalupe river overflowed following extensive rainfall in a short amount of time.

There have been many heartbreaking stories that have come out of this tragedy, including a brother and sister who heard their father’s final message to them after he had likely already passed.

Speaking to the New York post, the son said that their 61-year-old father Jeff Ramsey is still missing and believed to be dead after his airstream camper at the HTR RV Park in Kerrville was struck by the rushing water.

Ramsey’s son, Jake, said his father was staying with his wife Tanya, 46, and the couple’s whippet dog.

Jake said: “Once they realized there was nothing they could do, my stepmom was on the phone with her mom while my dad made a call to me and my sister. We were asleep. He left us a message saying he was not going to make it and that he loved us so much, telling us goodbye.

“He called me once he realized there was no hope. It was a short voicemail. He just left me a voicemail. He said, ‘Buddy. I love you so much. It doesn’t look like we are going to make it. Tell Rachey I love her’.”

He added that it was so odd to hear his father sound so fearful and full of panic as he spoke these words.

He also said that the sound of rushing water could be heard in the voicemail for him and his sister.

Jake also pointed out that, as well as making sure there was a sweet message for him and his sister, his father also used one of his last moments to protect others.

He said that he called his wife’s brother and mother at 4.30 am to warn them as they were staying in another cabin about 150 yards up from the river.

Jake added: “He rescued them because they would have slept in and they would have washed away. That cabin was destroyed, completely underwater. He saved their lives.”
