Also, I don't think it's really in the canon that she was a "stereotypical saintly mother". The last thing we actually see her do before her death, a few months prior, is write that letter to Sirius, and I see nothing "stereotypically saintly" there. I think the perception of her as "saintly", a beautiful domestic Madonna or whatever, is extracanonical. There is some buildup of it in the text, but it's after their deaths - a nimbus attached to tragic young heroes, kind of thing. In fact it's not that far from the sort of iconic devotion Severus seems to demonstrate.
