Very sad to learn about the passing of a #Denver #lgbtiq king, warrior, champion, and one of the nicest humans I’ve ever met. Mr. Corky Blankenship. Denver feels a little less gay today. Please cross the #rainbow bridge and smile down upon us. Until we meet again! 🏳️‍🌈♥️🥲 pic.twitter.com/owOc3KRqm6
