"Tungurahua Disaster"


9 of 12

"Luis' Friend" Luis villavisencio Forado, who just lost his wife, Carmelina, reaches his hand out to one of the only things he has left, the half burned family dog, Pancrasio, on Sept 8, 2006. Pancrasio is living in an oven, the only thing remaining of Luis' house. The town of Palictagua was hit hard by the disaster when lava came through the village killing six people and seriously burning a fourteen-year-old boy.
