Robert and James are celebrating their 50th anniversary today. Before it was even fashionable they had a commitment ceremony in Cleveland in 1958. Robert is 87 and James 72. In the past couple of years Robert has had a hip replacement and a knee replacement along with battling prostate cancer. Today he is fighting kidney cancer and as he promised, 'In sickness and health' James is right there beside him fighting along! (Talk about Al Pacino's high hair in his latest movie--I certainly used the blow dryer on mine back in those days!! LOL)
The next picture is just a reminder that Alfredo and Mike will be seeing MY show tonight celebrating Alfredo's birthday a couple of weeks earlier.
The bottom picture is a reminder that the fight for a cure for AIDS is far from over. This picture was taken in 1983, in the Village on Christopher Street, when Larry Kramer and others started the GMHC to get funding for people with AIDS. Whenever I was in NYC I would help out when and where I could.
Next Sunday, the 20th, there will be a WALK FOR AIDS here in Fort Lauderdale and tomorrow Dale and David will be walking for AIDS in Hawaii.
