Begin the Thawing Coming Out of Jim Nabors
In Seattle, good for the state’s voters:
Jim Nabors, best known as Gomer Pyle from “The Andy Griffith Show” and “Gomer Pyle, U.S.M.C.,” has just wed his partner of 38 years, Stan Cadwallader, in Seattle, according to Hawaii News Now.
The couple traveled from their Honolulu home to Washington, where same-sex marriage became legal last month, and got married on Jan. 15. The ceremony was held in the privacy of their hotel room at the Fairmont Olympic Hotel, where they were joined by two friends — their neighbors from near Diamond Head — who served as witnesses. According to the actor, the couple first met in 1975, when Cadwallader — who is now — was a Honolulu firefighter.
