Re: Just finished the book

Dear Arthur,

Thank you for sharing your story. I am happy that you are on the path that God intended. I had a very dear friend who died of AIDS a few years ago. He, too, was an ordained minister with a child when he came out. Unfortunately, Danny's family did not react to the news that he was gay. His wife took their son and he lost all custody rights. Even until the day he died, his mother and father would not visit him. His father actually said, upon hearing the news that his son had AIDS, that Danny deserved what he got. Danny was strong and kept on going and was blessed to have his lover, Alan, by his side until the end. I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers.

God Bless You!
