Etiquette

Perhaps the original sender thought you were making her aware of a mistake, rather than asking a question as to whether they are invited. It's not 100% clear from your mail, after all you worded it "maybe you would like to". She might have read it and thought "Oops!" and not picked up on the suggestion that you re-issue.

People often see what they want to, especially if they've just been embarrassed by the faux pas of sending an invite to a dead man.
