In writing about them, we focused on the light of their lives instead of the darkness of their diagnoses, and sought to chronicle who they were, what they did and how they’ll be remembered. The Iowa Mourns project is a result of months of research to reveal the stories of neighbors and friends lost to the pandemic. Behind these numbers are our fellow Iowans. In the routine of it all a callus grows, a protection against what these numbers actually stand for - people.īehind these figures are storytellers and hard workers, Cubs fans and pie bakers, mothers and daughters, fathers and sons.
They appear in our inboxes and on our feeds like clockwork, sandwiched between big box store discounts and emails from friends.
The numbers associated with Iowa’s coronavirus pandemic come regularly. Watch Video: Iowa Mourns: Friends and families remember those lost to COVID-19
