An elderly couple killed in the Florida condo collapse died together in bed, their grandson says.

Brian Lozano told NBC Miami that he "got a sense of peace" learning that his grandparents, Antonio and Gladys Lozano, were together when they died in the Champlain Tower South collapse in Surfside, Florida.

"They couldn't stand a moment without each other," he said. "I never saw them apart."

Miami-Dade Police recovered the bodies of the Lozanos one day apart from each other following the June 24 collapse, officials told the Florida Times-Union.

Brian Lozano said his grandparents would have celebrated their 59th wedding anniversary this month.
