[quote=Anonymous]My husband and I recently attended the funeral of a dear friend of his. The friend was newly remarried (2 years; no kids) at the time of his death; however, he had been married to his first wife for over 20 years and they had three children together. The first wife was not mentioned in the obituary even though most of his prime years were spent with her. She was present at the funeral and she sat with their children. I don't recall them having a contentious relationship, although one never knows the inner workings of a relationship. My heart hurt for her to have not been mentioned, as she was clearly saddened by his death and grieving for the children. My husband said he thinks it's pretty standard to leave the ex out. [/quote]
