Losing a child to suicide is something most parents could never imagine. Yet for Carole Brazis, the pain of her son‘s death in 2006 remains very real.
While struggling to comprehend this loss, she remembered a personal dream – to someday purchase a home so that her child would always have a safe place to live. Now, the idea has become ‘Tim’s House,’ a place for those lost in desperation, or who have been touched by such tragic circumstances.
Supporters and friends gathered at Girdled Road Reservation on May 19th to show their love through the first annual ‘Tim Weed Pledge Walk.’ This memorial event raised over five thousand dollars to help make the house a reality. Future plans for fundraising include a Chinese Auction/Dinner at Hambden Town Hall on June 30th, and a Golf Outing at Chardon Lakes on July 29th.
Those interested in volunteering or offering donations can reach ‘Tim’s House’ at P. O. Box 1074, Chardon, OH 44024. Or, call 440-286-HOPE.
