New Zealand and loved ones of the 29 miners killed mourn as efforts continue to recover their bodies
It has been a decade since an explosion at New Zealand’s Pike River mine killed 29 miners, and for the family left behind the wounds remain raw and open.
“Sometimes it feels like lifetimes and other times it feels like it was yesterday,” Sonya Rockhouse, who lost her son in the explosion, told RNZ. “The only thing I have noticed since time has gone on is that I am starting to forget what my son’s voice sounded like – which is disconcerting.”
