Tobacco orphans urge ban by 2020 - Health - NZ Herald News.
The Deans describe themselves as a family "orphaned by the tobacco industry" after losing their mother at a young age. Charlotte Dean was 35 when she died from a heart attack in 1987 while being treated for cancer. She left five children, aged from 5 to 13. All now adults, they still have their father, Grant Dean - who gave up smoking last year - but the loss of their mother took a heavy toll.
