MIAMI — Families of the victims in the Surfside condo collapse will gather at the exact time and site of the tragedy on June 24 for a memorial event on the one-year anniversary of the Champlain Towers South disaster.
The private gathering will be held around 1:22 a.m. — the moment the 12-story condo building collapsed. With candles and flowers in hand, they plan to meet on the now-barren plot of land at 8777 Collins Ave.
“We lost 98 people, we need to remember those people forever,” said Pablo Langesfeld, whose 26-year-old daughter Nicole Langesfeld and son-in-law Luis Sadovnic, 28, died in the collapse.
