Activist Mike Tidmus Dies At 60

Mike was an early leader in LGBT civil right internationally and right here at home. He was a cantankerous guy with a great wit and sense of humor. He battled HIV-AIDS for nearly 25 years and finally lost that battle today. He was so disappointed with the poor HIV-AIDS care in San Diego and worked to try and improve it. He was courageous to the end and, fought like he did all his life, to make things better for others.Karen Ocamb has posted a lengthy tribute to Mike at LGBT POV. We send our condolences to his family and friends. [Photo by Rex Wockner]
