Rufus has stated that there was a time when he had a rocky relationship with his mother who had a hard time accepting his homosexuality. One day she popped into a church and lit a candle and prayed and heard a voice tell her (paraphrasing) "He's a person. You have to accept him and be nice to him." After that their relationship was great.
Rufus took up the practice of lighting a candle in whatever church he could find when he was traveling, hoping to have the sort of epiphany she experienced. After his mother died of cancer he had a hard time and one evening he desperately wanted to light a candle for her, but the churches were all out of candles.
