Dear Ann Landers, pparently you were not aware of the changes in the Social Security laws or you would have given better advice to that seventy-year-old widow who moved in with a gentleman of the same age. The woman said marriage was out because she would then lose her deceased husband's Social Security. A widow can now remarry and collect 50 percent of her deceased husband's Social Security. Please tell her-and thousands of others.-Field Representative F.N.T.

Our Reader to Reader Question of the Week:
Dear Readers, , whatever they needed I provided. What really hurt my son and I the most was the obituary - we were not mentioned at all. Our friends (mine and hers) were appalled. I was embarrassed and upset for not just me, but for my son-who loved her also. I never been so upset. Her x-husband put his wife and kids and their grandchildren in the obituary, who my girlfriend barely knew. They live an hour away from us. I know its silly to be mad over a little section of the newspaper, but it still hurts. Will time let this devastating loss of her and this article ever go away? I am so angry at this whole situation, its not like we can go and rewrite an obituary notice.
