As many families begin to rebuild after Hurricane Helene’s devastating impact robbed whole communities of the things they hold near and dear, one North Carolina family is grieving the loss of 11 of its family members.

Hurricane Helene ravaged cities and towns in several states, including North Carolina, last month, and leaders have said it could take years to recover.

Eleven members of the same family were killed in a small North Carolina community after being struck by Hurricane Helene.
