Sad Dads Club-4th Thursdays-Scottsdale, AZ

This group is back in session

Many have asked what is the ‘Sad Dad’s Club’

The Sad Dads Club Story

This is a group of Dads who also unfortunately have lost a child. This is a great dads group, in a different setting than that of the past.

This is just a Group of Dads who has found a different way to talk, console, and laugh. Yes laugh in a lighter arena, and yet support each other fully. And I wanted people to be clear on this project.

I don’t have to tell you about the pain we have all experienced in the loss of our children, yet one thing that has drawn me to the MISS Foundation is the support, the honesty, the candor and the positive thinking. We all want our children back. That is our only wish.

Yet, this ‘club’ was organized after NBC12 Phoenix did a report on a group of Dads who have experienced the loss of their child. It aired for Father’s Day 2013 and was dubbed the Sad Dads Club by NBC Reporter Kevin Kennedy, It was hosted by Barry Kluger, along with Michael Sansone and Barry Adkins.

We were Struck by the fact that amidst the tears. Very hard tears. There were light moments as well.

Somehow, we find glimpses, however short, of what we have lost but what we may have.

In May 2013 Michael Sansone a MISS Foundation Mentor since 2006 founded the Sad Dads Club Social Group,.
