Country singer Pat Green has revealed that members of his family are among the missing in the floods that hit central Texas over the last week, calling it a “heartbreaking and deeply personal loss.”
“We are grieving alongside countless Texans whose lives have been upended by this tragedy,” he wrote on Instagram on Monday. “Right now, we kindly ask for privacy and space as we mourn, support each other, and begin to process what comes next for our family.”
Green’s wife, Kori Green, added that the “I Love Texas” singer’s younger brother “John, his wife, Julia, and two of their children were swept away in the Kerrville flood. We are heartbroken and anxiously waiting for all of them to be found. Thank you for your prayers.”
Green postponed a concert last Sunday amid the flooding, writing on the Fourth of July on his Facebook page, “Due to the unforeseen weather and tragedy around the Texas Hill Country, it has been decided to postpone tomorrow night’s show,” adding that the new date will be on Aug. 16.
