A Camp Mystic camper will be escorted home to Bellville today by law enforcement agencies. Virginia Hollis, 8, was "a pure, joyful soul," family friends say.

Kerrville musician Robert Earl Keen plans to offer his own contribution to the healing process. He was slated for a concert in the city’s Louise Hays Park on July 4, but the torrential rains and record flooding made that impossible.

The company's chairman announced Friday that 8-year-old Renee Smajstrla died in the Kerr County floods. She was a camper at Camp Mystic. The camp has lost 27 campers and counselors in the flood. The jewelry company -- which was founded in Kerrville -- has pledged one million dollars in flood aid and relief efforts.

Generations of parents sent their daughters to the Christian camp on the Guadalupe. It suffered floods over the years but no one foresaw tragedy.

More than an hour passed between Camp Mystic receiving a severe flood warning and a decision to evacuate young campers asleep in cabins by the Guadalupe River.

As the search for five missing Camp Mystic campers and one counselor continues, the summer camp community in Texas and across the country is offering support for a place that has become special to thousands of girls over the years.

Heather Barrera, 37, and her husband drove a U-Haul truck down from Houston packed with water bottles and supplies for flood victims. She handed them off to a wine bar in downtown Kerrville that has been collecting and distributing donations. The couple stopped by the memorial before getting back on the road to head home.
