________________ George Theodore Ted Fairchild Jr. Obituary
Published; 15, 2014, Elko [Nevada] Free Press http://elkodaily.com/lifestyles/announcements/obituaries/george-t-ted-fairchild/article_72a7f71b-d5fd-5249-a8fb-e8dc33f1595f.html [Additional information in brackets added by Stuart McDonald] Ted Fairchild passed away suddenly in Alameda, California, surrounded by his family on 1, 2014. Born in Winnemucca [Humboldt , Nevada] on 20, 1951, Ted spent his childhood on various ranches in Humboldt and Elko Counties [Nevada]. He graduated from Elko High School in 1969 and attended Washington State University for one year and then transferred to BYU [the Mormon Churchs Brigham Young University in Provo, Utah]. He was called by the LDS [Mormon] Church to serve a two year mission in Mexico and returned to graduate from BYU. [Although sexually attracted only to men from an early age,] Ted married Deborah [Ann] Brown in 1976 [09/11/1976 in Salt Lake City, Utah, Mormon Temple]. had two daughters and later divorced. [Before the divorce, he was employed as an Instructor at BYU, but was fired after at least one of his students complained of his being probably homosexual because he was so effeminate. He was fired even though he truthfully told BYU investigating authorities that, yes, he had always been sexually attracted to other men, but that he had never acted on his same-sex attractions and had no intention of ever doing so -- and even though he was married and had two children. Being fired from BYU for being homosexual doomed a marriage already under intense stress because he was homosexual and not sexually attracted to his wife. Ted then found the love of his life, but broke up with and left his undocumented gay marriage in 1986 after both tested positive for HIV, because Ted thought that this was a sign from God that he must become a good Mormon again by becoming active in the Mormon Church, being celibate from all further homosexual sex, and renounce gay sex as immoral -- although he was still homosexual. Despite this vow to be celibate, he did engage in homosexual sex after that at times, although he entered no more committed same-sex relationships. In his later years, he also married a woman again in the Mormon Church,, although he made it clear to her that he was homosexual and there would therefore be no sex. I don know his second wifes name or what happened to their marriage.] He worked in many health and nutrition positions until he became ill [including as Chair of the Utah AIDS Foundation Board of Directors in the early 1990s] and had to retire. He traveled extensively and made many friends all over the world. He spent the last seven years in Alameda to be close to his daughters and grandchildren. Ted is survived by his mother Donna Fairchild of Spring Creek [Nevada], daughters Melanie (Joe) Snell and Shannon Fairchild, and grandchildren Joshua, Charles, Nya, and Sam Snell. Preceded in death by his father George [Theodore] Fairchild [Sr.], and sister Diana Fairchild Ward. Memorial services will be held on 6 [2014] at 11 a.m. at the Oakland Interstate [part of the LDS Oakland Temple and Interstate complex in Oakland, California], 4770 Lincoln Avenue, Oakland, California. Donations in his memory can be made to Liahana Childrens Foundation in which he was deeply involved.
_________________ Gay rights: Oakland LDS Stake tries to heal post-Prop 8 rifts
By Peggy Fletcher Stack The Salt Lake Tribune
Published 4, 2010 http://www.sltrib.com/lds/ci_14336708 This is the church I know and love [This is an archived article that was published on sltrib.com in 2010, and information in the article may be outdated. It is provided only for personal research purposes and may not be reprinted.] Ted Fairchild, who is openly gay, has HIV and serves as a part-time LDS missionary in the Bay Area, left the love of his life to return to church activity. Linda Schweidel wondered why her bright, successful returned-missionary husband still was not ready for children after eight years of marriage. Thats when he broke down and told her he was gay. Diane Oviatt held her sobbing gay son in a darkened kitchen as he poured out years of grief at the secret he had been carrying for 18 years and wondered how he would get to heaven without marrying. These were among the anguished stories several Mormons shared during emotional church services Oakland LDS Stake held last summer to heal rifts caused by the faiths activism in the Golden State on behalf of traditional marriage. In 2008, the LDS First Presidency asked all California Mormons to give their time and money to Proposition 8, a ballot measure striking down gay marriage. Many members did so with gusto, circulating petitions, raising money, sending e-mails to church lists and putting up lawn signs. That left other Bay Area Mormons, particularly those with gay friends and relatives, feeling embattled and alienated. Some stepped away temporarily from church; others left for good. Those who remained often felt at odds with fellow believers. Oakland Stake President Dean Criddle, a respected lawyer and gentle leader, sensed the ripples of collective pain and wanted to reunite his flock, says Matt Marostica, bishop of the Berkeley Ward. So Criddle and his counselors assembled quotes and speeches from LDS general authorities that stressed love and compassion for those with same-sex attraction. then asked each of the 10 wards in the stake to hold a joint meeting of adult members during church services on either Aug. 30 or Sept. 6 to hand out the quotes and listen to personal stories from area members. The response in Oviatts suburban Moraga, Calif., ward was electric, Oviatt says. Everyone in the audience was weeping. Men came up to my husband, crying, and hugged him, saying, We love you and we love your son. A couple of the more ardent ballot supporters apologized to Oviatt for having Prop 8 signs on their continued...
