Some Excellent News: Boston’s Mayor Menino Names Today John B. Kelly Day

 

July 27, 2012 by Administrators

John B. Kelly is the founder of Second Thoughts, the group of disability rights activists opposing assisted suicide in Massachusetts. If you haven’t seen him in action, there is a video attached to the article linked below.  He is a terrific fighter for our cause, and we congratulate him on receiving this well-deserved honor.
