I said to them, ‘My husband was a full-time employee, he went to work full-time for you,’” she said. “And their response to me was, ‘Perhaps there was a communication issue in your marriage"

A swift kick in the gonads would make her communication with those idiots quite clear.

Its pretty clear that her husband and some others were not due those benefits. The situation sucks but the situation for a lot of people sucks when one of the parents dies expectantly.

Ding, Ding, Ding...we have a winner. If they were full time they would get the benefits, no questions asked. It sucks for the family but it sounds like the city is doing the only thing they can.

As for the "communication" comment, it's funny that the person wanting money is the one claiming the comment was made.
