Boston Globe 4/29/09: Bereaved fathers find healing in bonds of friendship. Fathers Forever grew out of a therapy group in Needham run by psychologist Linda Gudas. In 2004, with her guidance, the men broke off on their own. Membership grew by word of mouth and jumped when they invited an author to speak about men and healing. Today they have 40 men on the e-mail list; six to eight of them attend the monthly breakfasts on a regular basis. The group also has a website, www.fathers-forever.org.
