My family lives in the city. It's flooded there now. Businesses and many homes are flooded. Schools have been closed for the second straight day there.

Poor Keygan.

I hope for the best but the kayak being found worries me. Seems like an artistic, kind young man. I hope he’s taken cover and will come home soon.

Sadly, we were friends and attend school together. I don't feel confident that they're going to find him okay... I'm not sure of his kayak knowledge but it can be so dangerous, if not deadly. I live in Colorado now and so many people pass away from river accidents every year. It is horrible and heartbreaking none the less.
Keygan is so outgoing, kind, compassionate, and has so many friends who are still looking for him. I do hope that he has made it out okay..

**UPDATE**

They found Keygan Matlock's body today, April 6th 2018.
It was pushed out from the river in the tree line along a soybean field. Helicopters discovered this shortly after finding his kayak.
Thoughts and love to his family, friends, and everyone who cared about him. Rest easy my friend.
