Prayers for Bobby: A Mother's Coming to Terms with the Suicide of Her Gay Son Paperback - 1996
by Leroy Aarons
Bobby Griffith, at the age of 15, realized that he was gay and in conflict with his religious upbringing. Through Bobby's journal entries and his mother's reminiscences we learn of the emotional torment that led Bobby to take his own life. Prayers for Bobby takes readers through his mother's anguish and disbelief to her transformation from biblical literalist to enlightened parent.
First line
I first learned of the Griffith family in a 1989 article in the San Francisco Examiner.
