Good for them! It is heartening to know that some Earls get to die of natural causes after having shared a wonderful life with the man they love. But the wilful injustices inflicted by the law (and not only in Oklahoma) remain shocking and mind-boggling. It's the tire iron in disguise.  >:( >:( >:(

I agree!  Very well said.  I makes me sad and angry at what they had to go through.  The damn laws are just so unfair sometimes.
