After
25 years of married life, Ann Black and Kaye Wachsmuth decided to go to
Canada and make it legal. With an element of civil disobedience, they
packed their car and headed north to Toronto.
The two were married on May 17 at 4 p.m. by the first openly gay
Justice in Ontario, Harvey Brownstone (pictured above with Ann and Kaye).
Their witnesses, Ross Munro and Heather McGregor entertained the couple
afterwords with a reception at Heather’s home in Toronto and dinner in
Toronto’s gay village, with some gay friends invited to join the
celebration.
The couple honeymooned at Niagra on the Lake, and Corning, in the
Finger Lakes region of New York before taking a scenic drive back to
Rehoboth Beach.
The icing on their wedding cake was a reception in Rehoboth given by
Cindy Johnson, Judy Turner, Cathy Benson and Susan Jimenez at Cindy and
Judy’s home.
Justice Brownstone travels to the United States regularly to address
groups on a variety of issues of concern to the GLBT community in an
effort to alleviate fears that we pose a threat to any institution,
especially marriage. For contact information, call CAMP Rehoboth,
