SURFSIDE, Florida (CNN) Everyone who lost a family member in the Champlain Towers south building collapse is mourning, but one man s grief is amplified even more.
Marcelo Cattarossi says he lost five family members in the Surfside disaster.
Among them are his 89 and 85-year-old parents, two sisters, and a seven-year-old niece.
Cattarossi says his parents met in New York in the 1950s when his mother was a diplomat for Uruguay at the United Nations and his father was a civil engineer who had immigrated from Argentina.
After moving to Miami in the 1980s, they bought an Art Deco hotel and renovated it. It is now part of the Blue Moon Hotel and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

Yisroel ‘Randy’ Settenbrino, Brooklyn-born, Clifton resident, and developer of the Blue Moon Hotel in New York City, is on a very important mission. He is campaigning to save the hotel. First opened in 2006, the Blue Moon Hotel is located on 100 Orchard Street, the Bicentennial Block, across the street from the Lower East Side Tenement Museum. The Blue Moon Hotel is the second oldest building after the Tenement Museum on Orchard Street. It is housed in an historic, beautifully restored eight-story brick tenement building Settenbrino added three of the floors that was built in 1879. The hotel gives guests the feeling of the 19th century and the neighborhood’s Jewish history as home to working-class immigrants.
