Nov 2013

just last month (in one of those starred states) because names didn't match up on every single form of identification she had including a valid DL from a neighboring non-photo-ID-required state AND proof of property ownership in the same name as the valid DL....

She was married to a gay man for about 4 minutes (as a favor to help him out with his family image) some 30+ years ago. Never had a problem with anything until this year.

Obvious and sad.
