The wife of Daniel Darrell Snr., the truck driver of Tabatinga, Central Lethem, who died on Sunday after he was attacked by a swarm of bees on the Hunt Oil Stretch is asking the public to provide support for the 10 surviving children.
Darrell Snr’s common-law-wife, Emma Riechie, is requesting any help from the public to assist her with her children. Riechie said that, “I don’t work anywhere. My husband was the sole breadwinner for us. One of my sons worked with him as a porter. I really would like to get any help from the public for my children. She described her partner as a hardworking person and added that she relied on him to take care of her and the children. She noted that Darrell Jr will soon have to do surgery for the injuries he sustained in the bees attack. Riechie added that though some are not his biological children, her partner treated them as his own.
