At least four deaths from the factory have been confirmed.
At tonight’s vigil, the crowd announced each of the victims’ names as their families lit candles in remembrance, some breaking down in sobs as they knelt before their photos.
Guadalupe Hernandez Corona, the sister of one of the dead workers, Monica Hernandez, tearfully paid tribute to her sister, whose body was found Saturday.
“I just want each one of you to remember our families with a smile and remember the good memories you have with them,” Hernandez Corona told vigil attendees. “My sister was a hard worker, a fighter and was always looking out for everyone else.”
She also urged people to work together to find those still missing from the factory.
“Together they went to work, and together they must return,” she said.
Rosa Andrade Reynoso is one of the workers still missing. Anabel Andrade, a relative, said after the vigil that she has been praying hard for closure and for change.
“What we want from this [is] for things to change, for every workplace to have an evacuation plan for anything … so that this does not happen again, so families are not left wondering.”
