Joerg Meyrer steels himself before making his way through the stinking piles of mud-caked debris that permeate this once beautiful town in Germany's wine-making Ahr valley.
For the past five days, the Catholic priest has swapped his robes for galoshes to tend to his parishioners as they get on with the grim task of removing everything that was destroyed by last week's flash flood _ and recover those who perished in it.
Nearly 200 people died when heavy rainfall turned tiny streams into raging torrents across parts of western Germany and Belgium.
Officials put the death toll in the Ahrweiler district alone at 110, but Meyrer expects that figure to rise significantly.
