In Sickness and in Health  (from PFLAG National web site)

Our Senior Field & Policy Coodinator for the Northeast region, Jamie Curtis, offers this from a chapter in her region. PFLAG Bergen County (New Jersey) recently screened in a meeting the documentary In Sickness and In Health, and also featured the civil union of one of the couples portrayed in the movie, PFLAG Begren County members Chris Lodewyks and Craig Hutchison (pictured, left). Director/producer Pilar Prassas was also present.

Some background on the movie:

In 2002 seven couples in the state of New Jersey filed a lawsuit in the hopes of legalizing same-sex marriage.  In Sickness and In Health closely chronicles the journey of three of these activist couples.

The screening and ceremony took place last month, at their November 20th meeting. Read more about it here. Says Chris Lodewyks of the evening, “Last night’s event far surpassed our wildest expectations! We don’t think there could have been a more perfect setting for the showing of the film and our civil union ceremony than in the loving arms of our Bergen PFLAG family.” Congratulations to Chris and Craig!
