Andrew "Buddy" Anthos, 72, died Friday evening from injuries suffered in a brutal anti-gay attack. The following arrangements have been made for his funeral:

Public viewing and visitation from 2 - 9PM on Tuesday, February 27.
Funeral service will be held at 1PM on Wednesday, February 28.
The viewing and service will be at the Ford Funeral Home, 26560 Van Dyke, Center Line, Michigan 48015; (586) 754-2464

For information regarding the investigation please contact Melissa Pope, Triangle Foundation's Director of Victim Services at melissa@tri.org or (313) 537-3323 x112.

[Triangle Foundation is Michigan's leading LGBT advocacy organization. Their website is www.tri.org.

It absolutely should not have had to come to this, but I pray that this will spur Michigan's legislature to include sexual orientation and gender identity in our hate crime and ethnic intimidation laws.]
