Punctuation in first sentence

I'm not sure a comma is needed before Seana Tapp. I believe there should either be a comma both before and after the name or no comma at all. What do you think, Rothorpe? Other than that, the stub is fine. Corinne (talk) 02:45, 5 September 2015 (UTC) I'm also not sure it is necessary to mention the daughter's name again after "her nine-year-old daughter". There's not much between that and the first mention of her name. Corinne (talk) 02:46, 5 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, quite right. I prefer the commas myself, as it really is parenthetical, but it's a matter of taste. No need to mention the girl's name again, no. Rothorpe (talk) 02:48, 5 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Main section needs more info

Currently the lead section is longer than the rest of the article, which has only a single section (excluding appendices and footers), the first sentence of which is primarily a duplicate of the last sentence of the lead. (The only reason I haven't deleted it from "History" is because it's not immediately apparent where else to put the birth dates.) More material is needed in the main sections after the lead, or some sort of restructure is required to move material out of the lead. Mitch Ames (talk) 12:28, 16 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
