Widow  (WIDOW)


Dissolution of marriage1 (cf. 501-2) may take place by the death of one of the spouses (501-5), or, in countries where this is permissible, by process of law or by custom. If a marriage is dissolved by death the surviving spouse is called a widower2 if male and a widow3 if female. Widowed persons4 live in a state of widowhood5.
