P. P. S. The New York Times obituary for John Tower spells her name "Lilla," not "Lila," as the Wikipedia article did until a few minutes ago when I fixed it. The Times obituary does not mention the flower-rejection story, but does judge it appropriate to devote two of the article's twenty-one paragraphs to the topic "Bitter divorce in 1987," which is not irrelevant to his career since it says his wife's allegations "probably cost him the Pentagon post...."

P. P. P. S. Unfortunately I found a source for the story myself, so I added the source to Wikipedia's article. I expanded the quotation, because Towery's point was to show Tower's civility. I added a note on the Wikipedia talk page saying I wasn't sure the incident needed to be in the article and asking for comment. [[User:Dpbsmith|Dpbsmith]] 14:08, 26 January 2007 (EST)

P. P. P. S. As it happens I was able to find a source for the story myself, a newspaper article by Towery himself, so I added the source to Wikipedia's article. I expanded the quotation, because Towery's point was to illustrate Tower's civility toward his ex-wife. I added a note on the Wikipedia talk page saying I wasn't sure the incident needed to be in the article and asking for comment. [[User:Dpbsmith|Dpbsmith]] 14:08, 26 January 2007 (EST)
