Very sad, this happened to the husband of one of my co-workers, he was changing a light bulb in an outdoor fixture. Did not know he was allergic and couldn’t be saved in time.

You don't have to be allergic if enough of them sting you. The woman in the story was not allergic, yet 15 stings was enough to do her in.

Yikes, I did not know that.

May this poor woman rest in peace. Terrible for her children, they are orphans now. What a way to lose your remaining parent. Just an awful story.
