“Texas is in our blood. And right now, our hearts ache.” — The Strait Family Speaks After Deadly Floods
In a moment of shared sorrow with millions across the Lone Star State, the Strait family—beloved not only for their music but for their unwavering Texas roots—has broken their silence following the devastating floods that have torn through communities statewide.
The heartfelt message, released just minutes ago from Pearsall, Texas, wasn’t filtered through formal statements or polished PR—it came directly from the family themselves, raw and sincere.
“Texas is our home,” they wrote. “And our hearts break for every life lost, every family left searching, every neighbor who’s lost everything but their faith.”
At 73, George Strait has long held a quiet, steadfast love for his home state. Known for staying out of the spotlight during times of crisis, Strait has let his actions and music speak louder than words. But this time, it was different. The message was a united front—shared not just by George, but also by his wife Norma and their son Bubba, both equally moved to lend their voices during this time of grief.
Their words offer more than condolences—they reflect the spirit of a family that knows the soul of Texas, and the strength of its people.
