Massachusetts Governor’s lesbian daughter comes out in gay paper
“And I’ll always remember the first thing my dad did was, [he] wrapped me in a bear hug and said, ‘Well, we love you no matter what.’ … It was the easiest coming out experience that anyone could possibly have.”
“PFLAG extends a heartfelt invitation to the Governor and Katherine to join our local chapter in Saturday’s parade. We are proud to have them as part of the growing chorus of families who believe in loving all of our children equally, and just as they are.”
John R. Cepek, National President of Parents, Families and Friends of Lesbians and Gays, remarking on the way that Gov. Deval Patrick has lent his support to his daughter Katherine’s coming out. (Press Release via EarthTimes)
