The Manhattan tabloid Daily Mirror said that Frances Heenan (“Peaches”) Browning said of her late husband:
“Being married to him kept me from enjoying any normal girlhood. I know it is too late now to try and go back and recapture the fine ecstasy of adolescence, but perhaps I may at least be a normal young widow now that poor ‘Daddy’s’ death has removed the strange tie which has kept me from being either married or single through these eight years of separation.”
Mrs. Browning performs in burlesque shows.
