A lesbian couple in Missouri has settled a lawsuit brought against a St. Louis retirement community that refused to let them live there.
Mary Walsh and Bev Nance, who have been together since 1978, first heard about Friendship Village in Sunset Hills from friends who lived there. The retirement community is not affiliated with or operated by any religious organization, and purports not to inquire about residents’ religious beliefs.
