Whether enthusiastically attending our Creating Change conference, receiving our Leadership Award, leafing through the history of the LGBTQ movement in her apartment, showing up at protests or sharing a meal and talking over the politics of the day, Edie was an activist through and through. Smart, funny and always engaging, upon receiving the Task Force's Lifetime Leadership Award in 2013, Edie proudly whipped out her original Task Force membership card and a folder of priceless Task Force documents. I, and we, learned a lot from her and will miss her. Edie changed the landscape of what same-sex couples thought was possible and she forever changed this country. My heart goes out to Judith and all who loved, learned from and were inspired by Edie.Rea Careyhttp://www.thetaskforce.org/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7331361569911408612.post-78752492944987241122017-09-13T11:52:08.036-04:002017-09-13T11:52:08.036-04:00Representing Edie Windsor was and will always be t...Representing Edie Windsor was and will always be the greatest honor of my life. She will go down in the history books as a true American hero. With Edie’s passing, I lost not only a treasured client, but a member of my family. I know that Edie’s memory will always be a blessing to Rachel, myself, and Jacob. I also know that her memory will be a blessing not only to every LGBT person on this planet, but to all who believe in the concept of b’tzelem elohim, or equal dignity for all.Roberta Kaplannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7331361569911408612.post-51344161740628342112017-09-13T11:51:03.834-04:002017-09-13T11:51:03.834-04:00I lost my beloved spouse Edie, and the world lost ...I lost my beloved spouse Edie, and the world lost a tiny but tough as nails fighter for freedom, justice and equality. Edie was the light of my life. She will always be the light for the LGBTQ community which she loved so much and which loved her right back.Judith Kasen-Windsornoreply@blogger.com
