A man and a woman have been identified as two of the six people who perished in a collision that occurred in West Yorkshire.
It was on the A61 between Wakefield and Barnsley when Christopher Barton, who was 56 years old, and Janine Barton, who was 48 years old, were killed when the motorcycle they were riding collided with a car.
They were described as “a loving, caring mother and father who always put me before everything else” in a memorial that was given by the couple’s son through the West Yorkshire Police Department.
On the occasion of their 25th wedding anniversary, the couple had just celebrated.
It would appear that Mrs. Barton resided in the Barnsley region, as shown by several social media platforms.
The accident also claimed the lives of Shane Roller, who was 33 years old, his partner Shannen Morgan, who was 30 years old, and their kids Rubie and Lillie Morgan-Roller, who were nine and four years old, respectively.
They were “a delight to teach,” the personnel at a primary school said in their tribute to the two girls who had passed away earlier.
Lillie was characterized as a “bright, bubbly, and happy little girl who was a popular member of her class” by Athersley North Primary School in Barnsley. Rubie, on the other hand, was described as a “kind, happy, and caring girl” who planned to become a teacher.
“They were a much-loved part of the school community, and their loss is a devastating blow to everyone who knew them,” the institution stated in its statement.
They were a credit to their parents, who were always extremely supportive and who would also be deeply missed. The girls were a delight to their parents.
“Our heartfelt thoughts are with their sister and her family at this incredibly sad time.”
More than two hundred thousand pounds have been raised so far for the family’s eleven-year-old daughter, who was left an orphan as a result of the accident.
According to the website that a friend of the family named Paul Hepple created, the young girl had “lost her whole world in an instant.”According to the website that a friend of the family named Paul Hepple created, the young girl had “lost her whole world in an instant.”
At this time, her aunt, “who is an amazing, loving, and capable guardian,” will be responsible for her care, according to Mr. Hepple, who provided an update on Tuesday.
In addition, he stated that the funds would be used to provide necessities such as education and counseling.
On Monday, Callum Roller paid respect to his “amazing brother,” sister-in-law, and nieces who had passed away as a result of the incident by posting a message on Facebook at the same time.
He described the situation as having “ripped his heart into a million pieces.”
An “absolutely tragic incident that resulted in the loss of six lives” was how Superintendent Alan Travis of the Wakefield District Police Company characterized the event.
The West Yorkshire Police have issued an appeal, urging any drivers who may have seen the incident or who may have dashcam evidence to get in touch with them.
