In a heart-wrenching event that shook the community to its core, the collapse of Baltimore’s iconic Francis Scott Key Bridge has left us with heavy hearts. 🌉💔 Last Friday, amidst an operation as challenging as it was necessary, the body of a third construction worker was discovered, a stark reminder of the dangers faced by those who work tirelessly to maintain our infrastructure. This tragedy unfolded when a colossal container ship collided with the bridge, leading to a catastrophic collapse.
Among the debris, the brave salvage dive teams, alongside Maryland State Police, recovered the body of Maynor Yassir Suazo Sandoval, a 38-year-old construction worker whose dedication to his work will forever be remembered. 🙏 Maryland’s Governor, Wes Moore, extended his deepest condolences, emphasizing the dignified work of these individuals, often from communities that deserve our utmost respect and appreciation.

In the early hours of March 26, a tragic incident occurred when six construction workers, including Suazo Sandoval, were on the bridge repairing potholes. Their lives were cut short in a moment of unforeseen disaster. Suazo Sandoval, who had moved from Honduras to the U.S. 18 years ago in search of a better life, leaves behind a legacy of hope and vision, cherished by his family, including two children and seven siblings.
This incident not only highlights the risks faced by those working on our infrastructure but also calls for a moment of reflection on the value of human life and the importance of safety in all aspects of construction and maintenance. Let’s honor their memory by ensuring that their sacrifices are not in vain. 🕊️
