The couple’s two children had spent the weekend at their grandmother’s home have been left orphaned.
According to a family member the area had been experiencing power cuts and a generator was being used.

“The Fire Department conducted a thorough examination of the premises and identified a generator within the home as the likely cause of carbon monoxide poisoning, resulting in this tragic loss of life.”
