KRBD reports. Varela’s mother, Kathleen Griego-Varela, last week called a Ketchikan flower shop, Heavenly Creations, to inquire about flowers for the wedding.
She asked if the owner would be OK with a same-sex couple.“After about 30 seconds or so the woman responded with kind of a nervous giggle and said, ‘Yeah, no.
I’m not OK with that, so I won’t be able to help you,’” Tommy Varela told Alaska TV station KTVA.His mother posted about the encounter on Facebook.
