Second tragedy to hit family after fire horror
IT has emerged that Natasha’s death is the second horrific tragedy to hit the family in just over a decade.
In June 2005, her brother Alan Wild, aged nine, Layla Wild, 23, believed to be her stepsister, and Layla’s 11-month-old daughter Courtney Nabb perished in a house fire on Albion Road, Sparth, along with family friend Cole Ridgway, two.
The blaze is said to have been caused by an electrical fault involving the tumble dryer.
Layla was taken to hospital with 75 per cent burns but never regained consciousness and her life support machine switched off.
She never knew the fire had claimed the life of baby Courtney.
Friends paying tribute was to Natasha also remembered her lost family members, saying they are now all together once more.
