And barely, at that. These days you are lucky if people even know the difference between miss, Mrs, and Ms. Hell even the post image has it wrong. None of them have anything to do with being widowed, I assume they mean Ms (pronounced Mizz) but that’s just the most neutral option because Ms implies nothing is known about the age or marital status.
