Sharing Good News

Joanie had a rough day but she had succeeded in her purpose of buying groceries amid a thunderous storm. She spent the rest of her day relaxing at her home and if it wasn’t for Dan and his kind efforts, the old woman would have suffered an ill fate like a few others who weren’t as lucky as Joanie. However, Dan Barnett was clueless about the surprise he was in for…

Back To Work

Dan had successfully rescued this old woman and he had done it with all its heart as he made sure to drop the poor woman all the way back to her home. He then decided to take a walk back towards his office. He had not expected anything from his visit to his office as it was a daily thing for him but he was left surprised by what happened in the next moment. He was hailed as a local hero by his coworkers and they all appreciated his compassion towards an absolute stranger.

After The Storm

Storm Doris was finally over but it had left mayhem behind it, changing the face of many towns and cities for the bad. Stories of loss and destruction were surfacing all over the news and many rural communities were in a state of great disturbance as a number of electricity sources failed miserably. While there was serious damage including economic loss, not everyone made it out alive after finding themselves in the middle of this storm.

The Fallen Victims Of Doris

Unfortunately, not everyone was as lucky as Joanie. As it transpired, two people suffered serious injuries due to the accidents caused by Storm Doris and a young woman even lost her life. The late woman was an employee at the University of Wolverhampton, and she was out with her friends in Wolverhampton city center when she met her end.

An Unfortunate Event

Tahnie Martin’s death was tragic and it was sad to see a young and ambitious woman meeting such end. The 29-year-old was out there walking on Dudley Street with her colleagues when she met with the unfortunate accident that took her life. She had just walked past a cafe when a large piece of roofing flew from a building and fell directly on her. She died at the sight and it broke everyone’s heart and left them gutted for the rest of their lives. Nothing can fill the void for her absence but her loved ones still remember her for the amazing person she was…

Paying Tribute

The university’s vice-chancellor, Prof Geoff Layer, said: “We are all deeply saddened by this tragic loss. During Tahnie’s short time at the University, she made a real impact both in a professional and personal capacity. She became a very popular member of the team and was highly valued”. While the immediate effects of Storm Doris were quite intrusive and it had caused serious damage to both property and life, the aftermath had lead to more serious damage and it turned out that Tahnie Martin wasn’t the only one who lost her life to Storm Doris as there were more casualties.
