Texas Father Leaves Heartbreaking Goodbye Voicemails as Floods Sweep Him and Wife Away<\/strong>. As devastating floods hit central Texas, 61-year-old Jeff Ramsey and his wife Tanya, 46, were swept away while sleeping in their Airstream trailer at HTR RV Park in Kerrville. Before the water took them, Jeff left heartbreaking voicemails for his children.<\/p>\n

To his son Jake, he said: \u201cBuddy, I love you so much. It doesn\u2019t look like we are going to make it. Tell Rachey I love her.\u201d In a message to daughter Rachel, Tanya\u2019s screams could be heard in the background: \u201cWe\u2019re dying, we\u2019re dying!\u201d An emergency alert arrived \u2014 but too late. Jeff had already begun his goodbye.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

Even in those final moments, Jeff called Tanya\u2019s family, waking them up and saving their lives. Their cabin was later destroyed by the flood. Tanya\u2019s body was recovered and identified by her tattoos. Jeff remains missing. Their dog Chloe was later found alive in a shelter \u2014 a small miracle in the tragedy.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n

Tanya, a breast cancer survivor, worked helping other women; Jeff was a beloved volunteer and friend. His last act was one of courage and love. His son Jake says the tragedy could\u2019ve been prevented, blaming delayed alerts. \u201cHe already said goodbye to me and my sister,\u201d Jake said.
\n\u201cIt was too late.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n

Now, Jeff\u2019s voice lives on as a powerful symbol of a father\u2019s love during a disaster that claimed over 100 lives in Texas.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
