‘Loving wife’ and ‘longtime girlfriend’ place dueling obits for same man
Click here for reuse options!In the first obit, his “loving wife, Bearetta Harrison Black” gets top survivor billing. In the second, however, Bearetta is nowhere to be found, but “his long-tome (sic) girlfriend, Princess Hall” appears in her place.
A man answering the phone at Greenidge Funeral Homes told PhillyVoice that the obituaries were placed separately because “the wife wanted it one way, and the girlfriend wanted it another way.” But he did not anticipate any friction because everybody knew it was happening.
This isn’t to make light of Blast’s death, but here’s hoping the dueling obits don’t cause any friction at the funeral.

Reminds me of the Chilean mine disaster where 33 miners where rescued after several days trapped deep underground. His wife and mistress both showed up during the rescue…my wife and I always joke that he volunteered to be the last man out.

i had to edit my post below. i meant that first sentence with a question mark. i didn’t in any way mean to suggest the way he lived it by having 2 women was right. i’m just saying, since they knew of it, he just lived his life and it must have been good for him, but i can imagine it suck for those women.

I keep track of members of a private club. Occasionally, there will be multiple death notices published by competing family members, usually omitting or adding names, reason not given.
