    Madoff son's widow returned to NYC home of suicide

    NEW YORK (AP) — The widow of Bernard Madoff's son says she threw up when she returned to the New York apartment where he hanged himself.

    Stephanie Mack had vowed never to go back there after Mark Madoff's December 2010 suicide.

    But Mack says in the March issue of Harper's Bazaar magazine that she took her two young children to the apartment to return "normalcy" to their lives.

    Mack wrote a memoir, "The End of Normal: A Wife's Anguish, A Widow's New Life."

    She's dropped Madoff from her name. She and Mark chose Mack by combining the M from Madoff with ACK, the airport code for Nantucket, where the couple married. They didn't want their children to carry the Madoff name.

    Bernie Madoff is serving 150 years in prison for a vast Ponzi scheme.

      No way they did not know what he was doing, especially the sons who worked at his business. No sympathy deserved.

      My sympathy for this family is zero until they offer all of their assets obtained with victims' money back to the victims' trust.

      His conscience just got the better of him.For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows.

      Who are you people? What did she have to do with the theft? Furthermore what did Mark have to do with the theft? The mean spiritedness of your remarks defy description.

        I believe he worked for his father, and it didn't take long for for anyone looking into Madoffs business that it was a scam. Yes I feel bad for her and her chidren, there is always a chance that he really didn't beleive that his father was stealing and when he found out.....

        The son knew B.Madoff was stealing. How many spouses do you know that could keep a secret like that?
