In the aftermath of Hurricane Helene: A 7-year-old boy’s tragic fate and his final words

Hurricane Helene, the deadliest mainland storm since Katrina in 2005, has claimed the lives of 200 people as rescuers continue their search for survivors. The deaths have been reported in South Carolina, Georgia, Florida, North Carolina, Virginia and Tennessee.

The number of people missing is counted in hundreds, and the number of homes left without electricity is nearly a million. Unfortunately, rescue teams face challenges as many roads rendered impassable by the storm’s destruction.

North Carolina Governor Roy Cooper highlighted the severity of the situation, saying that the rugged landscape has made it difficult for many communities to receive any assistance.

Among those who lost their lives is 7-year-old Micah Drye of Asheville, North Carolina. He and his grandparents were swept away by floodwaters after seeking refuge on a rooftop. The boy’s mother, Meghan, survived.

The news of Micah’s death was disclosed by his aunt, Jessica Drye Turner, who also shared the boy’s final words, “Jesus! Please help me!”

The heartbroken aunt expressed her grief and pain over the loss of her sister’s son. “New grief and strong faith. New motto.”

The boy’s lifeless body was located about a quarter mile from where his mother had been rescued.

Meghan’s other sister, Heather Kephart, started a GoFundMe page to help Meghan after the devastating loss of her son, her parents, and all her belongings, including her home.

The fundraising page included a photo of sweet Micah, taken by his grandmother mere days before the tragedy. He could be seen wearing a Jurassic World T-shirt and smiling.

This family’s huge loss is just one of many caused by the devastating storm.

Tina believed she’d found her happily ever after when she married her high school sweetheart, Richard. At 18, she eloped with him, despite her dream of a traditional wedding. However, shortly after, Tina became pregnant, and Richard’s true colors emerged. He kicked her out, and when she sought help from his parents, they cruelly accused her of infidelity and cut her off completely. Realizing she was on her own, Tina devoted herself to raising her son, Greg, with all her strength.

Greg grew up aware of his father’s abandonment and supported his mother, eventually becoming a successful businessman. Despite his accomplishments, Greg harbored a deep resentment toward Richard. One day, he tracked down Richard, only to find him frail and struggling. Realizing revenge wasn’t worth it, Greg instead bought Richard’s house, which was being repossessed due to debt.

When Richard arrived at the property agent’s office to finalize the sale, he was stunned to see Tina and Greg there. Greg revealed who he was, ordering Richard to vacate with the same words Richard had used years before: “If I see you again, we’ll have a problem.” Tina watched Richard leave, reflecting on the irony of the moment.
