Roxanne Ellis and Michelle Abdill
Roxanne Ellis (November 4, 1942 – December 4, 1995) and Michelle Abdill (July 8, 1953 – December 4, 1995) were a lesbian couple, murdered in Medford, Oregon by Robert Acremant.
==Background==
In 1990, after enduring increasing homophobia in Colorado, Michelle Abdill and Roxanne Ellis moved from Colorado Springs, Colorado, to Medford, Oregon. The couple met in Colorado, where Ellis — divorced with two children — worked as an obstetrics nurse. Abdill got a job in the same doctor's office, and they eventually became life-partners.
The couple started a successful property management business and was elected to the board of their church. They spent their spare time restoring their old Craftsman-style house, visiting Ellis' three-year-old granddaughter. They also worked as activists, fighting two Oregon state ballot initiatives in 1992 and 1993; Measure 9 intended to amend the state constitution to declare homosexuality "abnormal, wrong, unnatural and perverse," and Measure 19 intended to restrict library access for materials related to homosexuality.
At the time of their murders, Ellis and Abdill had been together for 12 years.
