The Pride flag was more than a flag to many. For me it was a symbol of safety, community, love, freedom, and the ability to be myself.

Thank you Gilbert Baker for your creation. For giving us a way to show our pride, our hope, and our community.

You will live forever in our hearts and your rainbow ????  will forever change lives.
