And this enabled her to be successsful and remarry happily and all that shit.

I don't know. I don't think he would have gone back to Brenda. I don't think she would have taken him back either.
And the family was pretty shitty to her at the funeral. It was only as they all began to move past their grief that they realised they were all connected as family, whether they liked it or not.
