Thanks, DE. I agree that people's sexual orientation is their own business and between them and their God.
Knowing Neil changed my mind about being a homophobe, which I was when I met him. What a great friendship and beautiful memories I would have missed had I gone with my thoughts instead of my heart. I would have also missed some "enlightening," wouldn't I? I'm a better person for having known Neil.
