Anna Keefe Memorial
 
Anna Keefe Memorial

TI lost a dear member of its family recently - Anna Keefe, PhD. This page is dedicated to her memory and all the wonderful things she did for TI, and the people she helped over the years.

Anna came to TI in 1977, 34 years ago, and never left. She became a Faculty Member, Supervisor, Senior Supervisor, Training Analyst, Director of Community Services, Director of Training, and lastly, Executive Director. She was known for her compassion, intelligence, quick wit, style, and love of cooking. She personified TI and its atmosphere, never feeling too important to pick up a broom, to carry shopping bags or food for an event, or to chat with the super or doorman. None of us would be here if not for Anna’s work on the renovation of our new home on 27th street. We miss her terribly, even as we swear we just saw her turn a corner and heard her laughter in the halls. She is present in her absence.

  “A thousand journeys began in this place
  What magic has occurred here.
  What marvelous beginnings have these rooms seen
  What joy so many have felt
  What wonder to see things clearly for the first time.
  What shy glances
  What triumphant grins
  What shared laughter
  What decisions have been made
  What sorrows expressed
  What souls reclaimed
  What gifts have emerged
  What lives have been saved
  In this humble place.”
