FORTY THREE American companies make automobile wife died. I had eight children by my first wife and none by my second.

When: my children introduce me to any of their friends, they say, is my father and this is Mary." Mary has gone all out to be a good mother to my children and she has been: wonderful wife to me. All the children are married and have children of their own, so they could call us "Grandpa and Grandma." Or they could refer to Mary as their stepmother, or, even "Mrs. So and So." What procedure should I use to get my children to refer to my wife in a more respectful manner? GRANDPA DEAR GRANDPA: Why not call your children gether and ask that they reter to your wife in a manner more pleasing to you? vote for "Grandma" for the chil. dren and see nothing wrong with "Mary" the rest of the time. DEAR ABBY: That Tampa funeral director who said the one who cries the loudest at a funeral is usually the one who did during the least for the deceased his lifetime doesn't know what he's talking about.

My husband was killed in an automobile accident in July, and I don't know who cried louder, his mother or me, but everybody at the funeral will tell you it was close. He was the pride and joy of his mother's heart, and there was nothing in 1 this world I wouldn't have done for him. I don't remember what I wore to the funeral, but my sister-in-law told me later that I had worn my heavy winter coat (in July)! And I couldn't tell you who rode where in the funeral procession. All I can remember seeing was that hearse ahead of me. Gee, that Tampa man's letter burned me up.
