"Census Bureau figures say that, on the average, women who have lost a mate will live on for 14 years. Besides the grief, a widow must deal with a sudden shift in social relationships. Families and group activities help with the adjustment to a new lifestyle--and some women function well living alone." (ST. LOUIS POST-DISPATCH) This article examines how widows "adapt to being single when still married is what" they want to be.
