Statement On David Boies From Bill White & Bryan Eure

NEW YORK, July 2, 2014 /  Please attribute the following statement to Bill White & Bryan Eure: 
"We've just passed the three-year mark since marriage equality was approved on our home state of New York - which means our own three-year anniversary is right around the corner," said veteran and military advocate, entrepreneur and CEO of Constellations Group Bill White and his husband,Bryan Eure, SVP at Willis, a leading commercial insurance broker.  "On the day of our wedding, David Boies joined us for life in a gesture of love and commitment.
These same values formed his commitment to men and women in California and all over the US on whose behalf he fought selflessly two years later to successfully battle Proposition 8 at the Supreme Court. We can't wait to read the book which details the behind-the-scenes take of the Prop 8 case this summer.
"For the rest of our lives, when we think of our wedding and the forces that join us, we will think of how proud and thankful we are of our friend David and his lifelong dedication to civil rights. We know that hundreds of thousands of other couples across the country will do the same for years to come."
