Schiavo Marries His Longtime Girlfriend

Michael Schiavo, whose brain-damaged wife was at the center of a contentious end-of-life battle that played out on a worldwide media stage, has remarried in Safety Harbor, family members said.

Schiavo married his longtime girlfriend Jodi Centonze on Saturday in a private church ceremony.

Schiavo’s former wife, Terri, died in March after her feeding tube was removed. She had suffered irreversible brain damage after collapsing at age 26 in 1990.

Terri Schiavo’s parents and siblings fought for years to keep her alive, arguing that she had some level of consciousness.
