Story

Fourteen years ago I lost my only brother and my parents lost their only son. My brother, Mark died at the age of 16 years old after a 4 long year battle with Leukemia. Losing Mark has changed my outlook on life. It is my life's mission to help other bereaved individuals and especially siblings work through their grief. The Compassionate Friends have helped me help me heal my own wounds. It is my honor to currently be the Sibling Group Leader as well as Co-Leader of the North Central MA Chapter of TCF. 

The mission of The Compassionate Friends: When a child dies, at any age, the family suffers intense pain and may feel hopeless and isolated. The Compassionate Friends provides highly personal comfort, hope, and support to every family experiencing the death of a son or a daughter, a brother or a sister, or a grandchild, and helps others better assist the grieving family. Please help us by giving whatever you can using the 'Donate' button. The more people that know about TCF's Walk to Remember, the greater the impact, so please also spread the word by sharing our page with your friends and family. Thank you in advance for your generosity, it means a lot!

Never Lose Hope!
