I just want to second what everyone many other people have said-- don’t make him talk about it! Leaving a note is fine, whatever, but face to face conversations might scare him off. I actually just came out to my mom the other day-- by mentioning how another friend’s mom found our instant messages about him being gay and freaked out. I said enough things for her to know, but the minute she actually wanted to talk about it I ran away to my room. Why? Because that would be awkward. It’s enough to know that she knows, we don’t have to talk about it.
