TAGBILARAN CITY — For 33 seconds on Friday, October 15, bells that date back to the 1800s, pealed at the St. Joseph the Worker Cathedral in this city to commemorate the eighth anniversary of the 2013 Bohol earthquake.
Parish members rang the bells manually, pulling on long ropes in the church’s tower at 8:12 a.m. — the exact time the deadly tremor shook Bohol on Oct. 15, 2013.

Memories of that 7.2 magnitude earthquake continued to echo to this day, said those attending Friday’s event.
“Memories are never forgotten,” said Jay Barace who visited the graves of his relatives who died during the quake in Antequera town.FEATURED STORIES
