Heidi Lynn (William Windsor) and I were friends. In fact, we lived down the street from each other in Phoenix on Indian School Rd back when he lived in the Standard on 29th apartment complex. We met in 2004 at a Best Buy store in Phoenix on Camelback Rd. I saw him dressed as a baby girl and I recognized him from the Jerry Springer show which was many years before. I told him right away that I too was an AB and we become friends and had dinner together many times after that. (Including get kicked out of Rosita's Mexican Food in Tempe, a suburb of Phoenix, because Heidi Lynn was dressed as a baby girl.)

But we were not close friends. Why? We were both ABs, about the same age and lived down the street from each other.
The only reason we were really not close friends, or spent much time together, is because he hung out with an unsavory element in Phoenix.
Heidi Lynn (William Windsor) had money: lot's of it. And many "street people" that he met in his walks about Phoenix all wanted to use him for his money, including lot's of street hookers and crack-heads that pretended to be his "Mommy" in order to get money from him.
And there were drug and alcohol issues too.
Like many of us who are in diapers and have struggled with the desire to wear and soil them, Heidi Lynn sought to drown these baby feelings in booze, coke and crystal. Many times I would drop his/her place (which was an adult sized nursery, complete with a crib and highchair) and there would be strung-out prostitutes hanging out there, smoking the crack or crystal that Heidi Lynn (William) had bought them.
Frankly, I wanted nothing to do with his "mommies" or his street friends.
And yes, he/she was robbed and assaulted many times by these people who pretended to be his "friends" or his "mommies." Honestly, I felt sorry for Heidi Lynn: she was always searching for mommy love in all the wrong places.
RIP my friend. You are missed.
