re: #342 rightymouse

If my husband or I died without a will, the rub is that one of us and the kids (for sure) would be screwed. The same would be true of homosexual partners.

Actually, that’s not true. Ohio, like most (if not all) states, has an intestacy statute that assures that all of the assets are distributed to the spouse and children (the shares depend upon the circumstances). Not true for same sex partners.
