PERFECT! LOL
How do you know it wasnt?
I was thinking the same thing. If you can "marry" another man, why can't this poor woman have the corpse she loves and the tax advantages?
This reminds me of the film SON OF DRACULA, where a gypsy fortune teller tells the heroine, "You will marry a corpse . . . ."
