SURFSIDE, Florida—The slow work of sifting through the remnants of a collapsed Florida condo building stretched into a sixth day Tuesday, as families desperate for progress endured a wrenching wait for answers.

They’re learning that some of their loved ones will come out as body parts. This is the kind of information that is just excruciating for everyone.”
