About This Quote
Father Tim made it his life’s work to make sure that every family had the love and support that was necessary to get through difficult times. He learned what it takes to ease the pain of loss by helping families cope with the destruction of a child’s life, the death of a parent, or even the birth of a new baby. He did this by bringing families together in groups to share their stories and learn from each other how they got through their own losses.
