On Tuesday, February 22nd, 2011, a 6.3 magnitude earthquake struck the city of Christchurch, New Zealand in what would go on to be the country’s fifth-deadliest natural disaster. Homes were lost, businesses destroyed, local monuments demolished and families were devastated by the rampant destruction that roared forth from the earth. And nobody knows it better than Jolie Wills, who not only served with the Red Cross in responding to the earthquake but also survived the event herself with her husband and children when their own house was nearly toppled that fateful day. In Part One of this two-part interview, Jolie joins host Rick Hoaglund to talk about just how devastating the Christchurch earthquake was, through the eyes of somebody who was on the ground, on the day, and for every day after.
