in memoriam suicide memorial gay youth

Suicides by young gay males is a great tragedy of ever growing proportions. Even one such death is one too many. This page is meant to serve as a memorial to those young men that have taken their own lives simply because either they or others around them couldn't deal with the simple fact that they were gay. I hope that by listing their names here will persuade others to be more accepting of others in order to prevent this list from growing.

If you are contemplating suicide, DON'T! There is help for you. Call hotlines such as the one listed on the left hand side of this page. The Resource Directory also provides links to sites that can help you. There are people out there that care. Reach out to them and let them help you.

If you know of someone whose name should be added to this list please email the webmaster with the person's full name, date of birth and date of death.
