Mary Alice Wheeler appeals from a summary judgment dismissing her claim against Charles Jones, an uninsured motorist, and Hartford Accident & Indemnity Company, her insurance carrier.
Mary Alice Wheeler and Joe Fields, Jr., were the parents of Joseph Gregory Fields, born January 13, 1956. The parents were divorced in 1961, and she was awarded custody of their son. On August 3,1972, Gregory, while a passenger in an automobile being driven by Charles Jones, sustained fatal injuries in a collision. Jones had no insurance coverage and, therefore, qualified as an “uninsured motorist.”
