All rights reserved The Legacy of Matthew Shepard Judy Shepard WKBmm Bk jjg Jllfß ; wL mM Great Hall, UNC-CH FPG Student Union 7:00 PM | January 30, 2007 On October 8,1998, Judy and Dennis Shepard were awakened in the middle of the night in Saudi Arabia, where Dennis works, by a telephone call no parent should ever have to receive. What they heard changed their lives forever. Their eldest son, Matthew, was in a coma after having been brutally attacked — because he was gay. On October 12, Matthew passed away. Judy Shepard is determined to use her grief over her son’s death to make a difference-to do what she can to ensure that no other parent will have to endure what she has. She is now speaking to audiences nationwide about what they can do to make their schools and communities safer for everyone, regardless of their race, sex, religion, or sexual orientation.

That’s the question startled hikers, bik ers and horseback riders in Sarasota, Calif., are asking about a jogger seen streaking through an open space preserve wearing nothing but sneakers, glasses and a black tarn hat.
