Default What happened to Mike's "first" wife ?

Is it ever discussed in the series? (We know that Carol's husband gave her a divorce,right? He never saw the kids, which is sad.)

Actually, we never did get a definitive answer as to whether Carol was widowed or divorced.

As for Mike, we know he was widowed, the real mystery is who is in the picture that they show in pilot as a picture of the boys' mother. There have been many theories as to who the mystery woman is but nothing concrete.

Mike was a widower, according to the trivia I have read. To my knowledge I don't ever recall anyone talking about her.

It was mentioned in the pilot that Mike's first wife had died - I don't think she was ever refered to again.

I thought she was referred to in an episode where Bobby wanted to run away from home. I think Bobby mentioned his mom.

You're probably right - it's been so long since I watched those eps!!
