Today would have been Matthew Shepard's 35th birthday

"Today Matthew Shepard would have turned 35 if hate hadn't ended his life so early. Thinking of his family, and the symbol of love and tolerance that he has become. A special thanks to his parents, specifically Judy Shepard, for all the work she has done to promote tolerance. Matthew Shepard won't be forgotten."
