the posted obit is only as good as what the immediate family insists on
Right. So, in this case, who is "immediate family?" Obviously, his brother and mother, but not spouse?

I don't think Sarah was a Larry creation though his relationship to her may have been enhanced without the benefit of recognition by the state. His passing with such rapidity could leave a bit of a mess for his relations. I hope he had a good lawyer do his planning for him.

Jon: Meh. Funeral was the 3rd.
Jolly: Stay classy, y'hear?
Yep, Larry's service was over two days ago. Five days is long enough for this uncharacteristic sweetness and light. Time to get back to our customary malignant acrimony.

Nor do I. In fact, Larry’s marriage to Sarah was very real. I have always maintained that marriage between two people is a state of mind that is expressed through the heart. They were undoubtedly husband and wife even if it was by common law. Nothing at all wrong with it.
