flash flooding<\/a> on June 12, 2025.<\/p>\nHis daughter, Brittany Guerrero, first spoke with KSAT one year ago about the final phone call her father made to her mother, Sylvia, as water rushed into his car.<\/p>\n
\u201cHe said, \u2018Oh my God, Sylvia, water is coming into my car,\u2019\u201d Guerrero recalled. \u201cShe said, \u2018Baby, can you reverse?\u2019 And he goes, \u2018You don\u2019t understand. It\u2019s like an ocean is coming at me.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n
Guerrero said her father then told her mother he loved her before the call faded.<\/p>\n
A year later, Guerrero returned to the Briar Glen Trailhead, where she said she often goes to feel close to her father.<\/p>\n
\u201cI always come here. I always feel like this is where his spirit is,\u201d Guerrero said.<\/p>\n
Since losing her father, Guerrero has also lost her mother, who died in January after battling cancer.<\/p>\n
Guerrero said she finds comfort in believing her parents are together again.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt brings me comfort. That\u2019s the one thing for sure,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n
But as the one-year mark approaches, Guerrero said she worries the Perrin Beitel flooding will be overshadowed by other flood disasters.<\/p>\n
\u201cI feel like people think of the floods and they think of Hill Country, and they really don\u2019t think about the one that happened right here in San Antonio,\u201d Guerrero said.<\/p>\n
She said she hopes people remember the lives lost, including her father.<\/p>\n
\u201cHe was just such a great person,\u201d Guerrero said. \u201cHe was bubbly and loud and would help anybody.\u201d<\/p>\n
One year later, Guerrero said the pain is still there \u2014 but so is her commitment to keeping her father\u2019s memory alive.<\/p>\n
