Many years ago Sister Theresa McIntyre of Catholic Social Services helped me immensely when I was trying to cope with my Mom’s untimely death. Without Sister Theresa, I don’t think I’d be here today. She was an excellent grief counselor and she’s very compassionate and good at helping others in coping with their grief. I have only good things to say about Catholic Social Services and Sister Theresa.🙏🏻

The worst, was lied to repeatedly by them and was told Birth certificate was in the mail. They never ordered it. So I called records in NY and was told the truth! Said it was held up by covid-19. Another lie!! Needed to get home when I lost my ID.
