Amazing end to an amazing week....
Last night, the week culminated in a candlelight vigil honoring the life and legacy of Matthew Shepard. We had a wonderful lineup of speakers including: Rev. Martha Munson , Dr. Cyndy Anderson, Bob Holmes, Chris Campf, Nicole Peterson, Brian Wells, Diana Shaheen, Kim Welter, Rev. Jim Ray, and a musical tribute by Rob Joki.
Personally, I was moved by every single one of the speakers. Each of them did a wonderful job providing information and sharing personal experiences.
Here are a few pics of the speakers...
After the speakers were done there was a moving performance by Robert Dennick Joki and a candlelight vigil. Here are some pictures...
Oh yeah there was a dessert buffet and I must say GRAPES + CREAM CHEESE + CRUSHED UP BUTTERFINGERS = "OH NO SHE DIDN'T" I think I personally ate about 4 lbs of that!
Here are some pictures of the COME OUT DANCING event from the night before. 
(***I just wanted to say that this was a celebration of the GLBTQ community & our AMAZING allies, so I must include this disclaimer appearance on this website does not imply sexual orientation, if any one's picture appears on this blog and you would like it removed please contact us and we will remove it immediately.****)

I was glad not to see me although I have to confess I myself wasn't worried about implications about my sexual orientation as opposed to unflattering photographic evidence of me! Beautiful shots. Thank you so much for all your hard work this week. I am proud to be part of this amazing group of advocates.
Wonderful photos of my favorite people! I wasn't aware of this blog, and will link to mine immediately www.youngstownmoxie.blogspot.com
