I am married to a wonderful woman and have four of the greatest kids on Earth.

In your example, the woman apparently inherited landlord duties when her husband died. 

Be your own woman, an individual and keep your head up and in the game yet don't be heartless.

For others it's the woman who knows just about everybody in town and can tell you exactly who to call depending on what you need.

Barbara was a quirky older woman but she always paid her rent every single month.

I have a Villa in pre-foreclosure that is rented to a woman in 40's who originally signed a lease with us thru a management company. 

Have tenants, man and woman, who have had a falling out over finances.  

Just like many other topics such as would you evict a pregnant woman, would you kick out a handicapped squatter after you bought a foreclosure, would you rent to a sex offender who was 16 when he was charged statuary rape against his girl friend who was 15-1/2?

The next partner showed up at 5:30pm, and had another woman with her.  

The 4-plex is owned by an older woman who had a different 4-plex I was interested in.
