Sad story. But, off of the topic of this story: isn't this the family of today's America? He immediately sent his three children, two boys from a previous marriage and a little girl with his fiancee, to their rooms so he could talk to the officer outside.

My fellow Americans: Please pick your spouses carefully. Wives: Please stay 1/2 way attractive to your husbands and not grow an @$$ half the size of a couch. Men: Please love your wife as Christ loves the church and not $cr3w the secretary, even if your wife blew up to 1/2 the size of your couch; hurt feelings by a Jenny Craig subscription is much better than injured children via divorce. Most of America's ills today result in the break up of families. This has become crazy in America!

You didn’t read the entire story, did you? The article mentioned that this man had lost his wife 8 years before to cancer and never thought he’d ever have to tell his children they lost another mother-figure in their life until that cop showed up at their house.

Guess you missed the part where talked about losing his wife (mother of the boys) to cancer NOT divorce.

I’ve driven for 25 years now, in every imaginable environment from mountains to deserts to twisty windy jungle roads in hurricanes, ice storms, dust storms, and every other conceivable condition across 32 countries on 4 continents. I have never had an accident, and in my early years I even used to drive intoxicated from coast to coast. I have, however had a few close calls and each one of those had to do with texting. It is amazing how even looking away from the road in the amount of time to read 10 words on your phone is enough to cause catastrophe. I am addicted to phones, but now I grit my teeth when my phone beeps, and wait until I can stop to read the all important text.

He was in his prior marrige until death-did-they-part. I think that fulfills the vows.

You just opened up a sack of bitch with that comment, pal.

Yes, women gain weight and get fat.

And so do men. EVERY SINGLE MAN I KNOW except for one is at least 40 plus pounds fatter than he was when he was young.

I'm, frankly, very tired of the joke that women get fat after marriage.

The truth is the MOST PEOPLE get fat after marriage.

If you would read the whole article you would find that his first wife died. That is why he has two children from his previous(actually not a correct usage of the word)marriage, not through divorce.

You didn’t read the whole story did you? His wife died of cancer that was why he wasn’t married.
