An elderly military couple married at their veterans home
the day before yesterday, Sept. 13 in the center’s first gay ceremony.
95-year-old World War II veteran, John Banvard, married his partner,
67-year-old Gerard Nadeau, who served in Vietnam. The two have been together
for 20 years, but had to wait until the recent Supreme Court decision to
legally tie the knot. The wedding held on Saturday at their home with few
friends in attendance. They sealed it with a kiss after exchanging vows. Those
who kicked against their marriage simply did not attend.
‘It was something we wanted to do for a long time’, Mr
Banvard said. Their ceremony, however, wasn’t completely welcomed by the rest
of the home’s residents as some of them protested, but the Facility director
insisted they had a right to get married just like others do. Another photo

End time thing....
