Notă biografică
Mary Francis found parts of herself in the experiences that the other widows had before her. When her husband died he was fifty-three and she was fifty. Twenty-seven years of marriage and then she was single, but she didn’t feel single. In fact she was not married, not divorced and really not single--and so she was a Widow. How odd that seemed!
