SEATTLE — The estate of Ric Weiland, a high school classmate of Microsoft Corp. founders Bill Gates and Paul Allen and one of the first five people to work at the software giant, has left $65 million to gay-rights and HIV/AIDS organizations. He died in 2006.
The bequests were announced Sunday by the Pride Foundation of Seattle, where Weiland was a board member. The foundation called it the largest single bequest ever given to gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender causes.
