Or the text I got from my archery coach this morning - "Ow! Get on down! 6 feet down."

But yes, quite a crap way of starting the day.

Last night, we were driving home from Midnight Mass and saw "I Feel Good" on the radio. I had heard that James Brown was in the hospital with pneumonia, so I said they were probably playing this in memorium.

I WAS SO RIGHT.

... so wait, she comes back from vacation to find not only he is dead, but she is now broke and homeless since they weren't actually married?

Now that just the worst Christmas EVER

I heard about his death on the radio this morning. They played Living In America as a tribute.

If her first marriage was annulled, that means it technically never happened, thereby making her marriage to James Brown legal. Unfortunately it'll probably turn into a huge legal battle no matter what initial conclusion is reached, unless either he made special arrangements in his will or she and his other children reach an agreement.

She apparently has a home not far from his, since they didn't live together full time. . .so she's pretty much trying for a sensation to swing sympathy her way. Depending upon a host of factors, including the common law marriage rules and inheritance laws in the state, her invalid marriage to Brown may not make a difference.
