[quote=Anonymous]I read newspaper obituaries all the time. There's probably a difference between the official obituaries written by the papers and the obituaries submitted by the family and which go into the paid section (I don't read those). In the professional obituaries, ex wives/husbands are usually mentioned if the marriage lasted for some time. Usually something like this: "John Doe is survived by his wife of ten years, Larla Doe, and his children, Baby Doe #1 and Baby Doe #2 and five grandchildren. His marriage of 25 years to the former Jane Doe ended in divorce in 19XX." It does seem like this will happen if there are children from the first marriage. Marriages that lasted a few brief years decades ago are generally not included. [/quote]
