Page 10B The Castlegar Sun Ann Landers Syndicated Columnist Dear Ann Landers: From the day my husband died three years ago, I've been wondering about all the so-called “bereaved wid. ows.” I suspect some of them are not so bereaved. I know I'm not My husband and I were mar ried for 28 years. We had ng significant: money problems Our sex life was good. We were blessed with four healthy, happy children and three lovely grandchildren I'm busy with civic, church and club work. Two of my best friends are also widows After many long talks, they finally confessed to having the same feelings as I -- "The freedom is wonderful. I'm enjoying life now as never before. I'm glad he's dead.” I wonder how many readers feel as we do but wouldn't dare admit it themselves Although I'm signing my name to this, please don't even use my initials or pinpoint the city. I'd hate for my children to know. -- Widowhood is Great Dear Widow: Being complete- ly honest about your feelings is healthy. But I wonder -- were you as honest in describing your life with your husband? I doubt it. For a woman to have had 28 very good, trouble-free years and then say, "I'm glad he's dead, seems mighty strange to me. Your letter is going to anger a great many widows who really do miss their husbands. But thanks for leveling. I wouldn't print your name for all the gold in Fort Knox. Your life would never be the same - not even to REVLON offers large size, large savings when you purchase Natural or European Collagen complex. 150 mi for the price of 90 mi.
