Hello Maylon and Shirley thank you for information.

I was a child when Darren died, I know how he died and I know where they were living at the time.

Did not realise she had remarried. So do not know hubby's surname.
They had another child and the name was close to her first sons name.

Thank you so much and any idea where she may be living now.

Many thanks Wendy
