Woman sat dead in front of TV for 42 years

THE remains of a woman have been found sitting in front of her TV - 42 years after she was reported missing.

Hedviga Golik, who was born in 1924, had apparently made herself a cup of tea before sitting in her favourite armchair in front of her black and white television.

Croatian police said she was last seen by neighbours in 1966, when she would have been 42 years old. ... She said: "I still remember her. She was a quiet woman who kept herself to herself but was polite. - dailyrecord

This is one of those stories you are glad didn't  include a picture.

Poor lady, didn't have too many close friends who could have saved from the television broadcast that killed her. I wonder, 1966? She watching the "Munsters"?

My first thought was, "was the TV still on when they found her?" I agree Ann. Too many people are too alone in this world.
