For days, I’ve watched these men and women walk away from the pile of rubble covered in dust and sweat. Exhausted but determined.
The days are long and still far from over.
Their hearts are heavy and so is mine. I think we’d all hoped for a miracle in Surfside. 💔
In tribute to lives lost, our rescue teams held a moment of silence & prayer near the Surfside building collapse. With heavy hearts, we begin search & recovery efforts, and will continue to give our all as our commitment still remains to reunite families with their loved ones.
