Yesterday we shared a photograph of a grandmother in Houston being rescued on a jet ski, and it turns out there’s a lot more behind that amazing story:

From WSB-TV:
An elderly couple from Texas is trying to locate a pair of Jet Ski-riding heroes who helped them to escape from their flooded home in north Houston earlier this week.
[…]
J.C. Spencer called the local Chick-fil-A, where the couple are regulars, and the manager sent a boat to help evacuate them. But with limited space, the two were forced to leave many of their possessions behind.
The man rescued was interviewed this morning:
