Description | It was just three weeks after her father, Governor Deval Patrick, had helped keep gay marriage legal in Massachusetts. The family was at their vacation home in the Berkshires, preparing a midafternoon picnic by the pool.
Katherine Patrick walked into the kitchen, told her parents to stop what they were doing, and asked her aunt to leave the room.
"I'm a lesbian," she told them.
Her mother, expecting terrible news, nearly burst out laughing, a sense of relief coming over her.
Her father wrapped her in a bear hug and said, "Well, we love you no matter what." |
