Kyan Douglas writes moving tribute to his mom: ‘You were a PFLAG mom when I needed you to be, even though I never had to ask’
My heart goes out to Kyan Douglas whose mom died today.
The television personality, best known for his five-year stint on Bravo’s Queer Eye, has just posted on Facebook a beautiful tribute to his mom, Judith Elaine Douglas, who was just 68.
Mom, in the East they say your mother is your first Guru. You were certainly my first Teacher, but you were also my lullaby singer, my tooth fairy and my Mary Poppins. You were my lunch box-packer, my nurse, and a scout-mother for Troop 23. You were a PFLAG mom when I needed you to be, even though I never had to
ask. You were my best cheerleader and probably my best friend. You cleaned, you cooked and you baked cookies, cinnamon rolls and birthday cakes. God only knows how much you sacrificed. You held me when tears rolled down my face- even as recently as last week. And many times that you will never know about, you were my conscience- my True North regarding right and wrong. You are my Heart and I can’t imagine my life without you; I will miss you until I breathe my last breath. I love you endlessly and always. Kyan

As a PFLAGer for 20 years with a 19yo Niece who first came out as bisexual 2 years ago and just came out this year as a lesbian, I send Kyan Douglas my heartfelt condolences! May Her Memory Be for a Blessing.
