Crones Love Story

Been saving this for a rainy day, dry day really. Possibly one of the best nuptial stories I've ever seen. It got a lot of attention when it was first published by the New York Times last May.

Thea Clara Spyer and Edith Schlain Windsor were married in Toronto on Tuesday. Justice Harvey Brownstone of the North Toronto Family Court officiated at the Sheraton Gateway Hotel.

She is 75 and she is 77 and they had been together 40 years.

“Everyone lived in the closet,” Ms. Windsor said of lesbian life in New York in the 1960s. “The only place to go was bars, and they were rough.”
