Memories of my visit to Des Moines in 1980 with Randy Shilts to fight CBS. Dan drove me all over the state to various LGBT events in support of our efforts. What a great man!

Thank you, Dan. I will miss you, my friend. The world is a little less brighter with you gone and a lot brighter for what you did.
As ever,
