He loved life : Marcus Guara dies in condo collapse. Wife, young daughters still missing Taylor Dolven and Samantha J. Gross, The Miami Herald
Jun. 30 As soon as the Champlain Towers South condo tower partially collapsed Thursday morning in Surfside, friends of Marcus Guara, 52, began sharing memories of the South Florida native on social media.
Accompanying faded photos of teen boys with shaggy hairdos on bikes are heartfelt messages describing days gone by spent at the now-closed Boystown BMX track in South Dade in the 1980s. He didn t stay mad at anyone for very long, recalled Guara s childhood friend Jeff Keller in a Facebook post. That s who he was.
