"It's like a dream you can't wake up from." Families remember City of Houston employees who've died from COVID-19

At least three City of Houston employees died from COVID-19 complications in a matter of days. One was a longtime Houston Fire Department captain. Two others were Houston Public Works employees. They're essential workers too. I used some old school reporter techniques (the white pages) to locate the sister of one of the public works employees. She agreed to do an interview with me from her home in San Antonio. She said she never imagined COVID would impact her inner family. Her sister, who struggled with asthma her entire life, died within a very short time after being tested for COVID following the apparent diagnosis of a supervisor at work.
