Obituary: A dead wife means one free hubby, right?
Sarah Awino gave marriage a second try through the obituary pages when she saw the coloured picture of a middle-aged woman and took up details of the husband she left behind.
"I first felt deeply sorry for woman's demise as she looked relatively young, beautiful and above all, well kept," said Sarah who sought other important details like cause of death. Road accident, it was.
"It is advisable not to get involved with a man whose wife died from long illness bravely borne," says Sarah who has been happily married since 2013, and says the many funeral meetings places in town are perfect hunting grounds as mourners and shocked family members hardly have time to differentiate who is who.
