On Wednesday, Aaron 'Mick' Crawford was counted as the 38th person to die as a result of the historic flooding in Kentucky – after days of helping his community recover.
On Wednesday, Aaron"Mick" Crawford was counted as the 38th person to die as a result of flash flooding that swept away homes and swallowed communities last month in the Appalachian region. The teen's death was a crushing loss, said Perry County Sheriff Joe Engle, his friend and pastor.The last time Engle communicated with his 18-year-old friend, Crawford asked where he could pitch in to assist victims as the floodwaters were surging.
Crawford's death came a few days after he became ill. His mother, Ronda Crawford, told the Lexington Herald-Leader her son"went into cardiac arrest."The kid who loved superheroes - even making his own costumes - and aspired to become a conservation officer immediately wanted to help others as rain swamped the region, Engle said by phone Wednesday. Last month's deluge dropped 8 to 10.5 inches of rain in only 48 hours, unleashing floodwaters that caused massive destruction.
