A New Jersey man was so loved, he had two competing obituaries when he passed away Tuesday — one from his wife and another from his girlfriend.

Leroy B. Black, of Egg Harbor Township, died Tuesday from lung cancer due to fiberglass exposure, his obituary said. He was 55.

Yet in announcing funeral arrangements in the Press of Atlantic City, there were two different obituaries for him.

Leroy B. Black, 55, had two obituaries announcing his funeral arrangements. One was from his wife, Bearetta Harrison Black, and the other from long-time girlfriend Princess Hall

The two obituaries were posted for Black, who passed away at 55

On the top one, Black is survived by his 'loving wife, Bearetta Harrison Black.'

In the next one, he is survived by his 'long-time girlfriend, Princess Hall.' Wife Bearetta isn't even mentioned.

An employee at Greenidge Funeral Home said there were two obituaries because 'the wife wanted it one way, and the girlfriend wanted it another way,' Philly Voice reported.

Black was a fiberglass technician at South Shore Contractors and Ocean City water Park.

Those girls are competing for that big mesothelioma settlement the decedent has coming.

We had a local Army major killed in either Iraq or Afghanistan circa 2004; I knew him by sight but not well enough to attend his viewing or funeral. A few of my friends did.

A friend of mine said there was one woman crying profusely at his funeral service; my friend assumed it was his sister or something because he knew the wife - who was stoic at the funeral. I told him, no, that was his girlfriend/mistress - he was estranged from his wife.

"America is at that awkward stage. It's too late to work within the system, but too early to shoot the bastards."

Blacks are always very emotional at their funerals. This one should be a doozy. Someone should set up several video cameras. Would make great material for You Tube. I can imagine the two women going at it at the graveside. Wow! ROFLMAO

if you look around, we have gone so far down the the rat hole, the almighty is going to have to apologize to Sodom and Gomorrah, if we don't have a judgement come down on us.

I'll second the bingo. The GF not only mentioned in the obit the cause of death but the name of the company where he worked! I'm sure the company CEO was touched by the free advertisement.

They may, but not at the graveside. More likely a conference table in a legal office.
