Substitute Husband
Falker's short, unhappy life ended at forty-seven. His widow bought a dog to
ease her loneliness. The sorrow mellowed as she became more attached to the dog.
"She's happy because she's gotten back into her old pattern of living,"
reported a neighbor.
"That dog is a perfect substitute for her husband. He's out all day, sleeps
all evening, and she feeds him out of cans."
