1st lesbian to get married passes away :(
August 29, 2008
Last June, Del Martin and Phyllis Lyon became the first lesbosaurus couple to get hitched. Yesterday morning, Ol’ Del passed away in San Francisco.
Del checked into a San Francisco hospital two weeks after a broken arm started fucking with her health. Kate Kendall of the SFGATE says that Phyllis was by her side up until she passed on.
“Del and Phyllis were a major part of the early movement for gay and lesbian rights. They founded the first lesbian organization, Daughters of Bilitis, in 1955. Del was also the founded member of several other organizations.” -DLISTED.COM
R.I.P. Del. I hope you’re having one hell of a Sapphic ball in the clouds.
