Twin sisters, Hanna and Rebecca Lawrence, had just finished second grade at University Park Elementary.
The girls were camping at Camp Mystic along the Guadalupe River in Hunt, Texas when heavy rains caused catastrophic flooding,
Hanna and Rebecca's parents, John and Lacy Lawrence, shared a statement with FOX 4.
"Hanna and Rebecca shared a bond that only twins could understand. They were so different, but had the sweetest friendship. They both loved books, and could stay up all night reading to each other. And they could spend hours playing make believe games with each playing multiple starring roles. They both looked up to and wanted to be just like their big sister Harper.
Hanna had endless energy and imagination and could always be found building, drawing, and creating. She would make new friends wherever she went, as soon as she got there. She loved to push buttons and boundaries, but had a talent for doing it in a way where you could not help but smile. She wanted to be a chef when she grew up so she could open a restaurant that would feed people in need for free.
Rebecca loved to snuggle and was always up for a family movie night. She loved her sisters and friends but was also independent and happy doing her own thing. Her laugh was infectious, and no one could make her laugh as much or as hard as Hanna did. She loved all animals, whether real or plush. She had her own clear sense of fashion and always knew the exact look she wanted. She was sweet and kind, but had a killer eye-roll. She wanted to be a teacher when she grew up.
They were happy girls."
