' A Place for Grieving Children Their Families Today is In 1984, Peggy Bohme recognized the need for a group support center for grieving children after the death of her teenage son. Through her search for emotional support for her surviving daughter, Mrs. Bohme realized the need to reach out to other children and their families who were also grieving the loss of loved ones. She was not alone in recognizing the unmet needs of grieving children. Dr. John Richardson, a prominent Fort Worth pediatrician, also recognized the importance of establishing a grief support center to meet the emotional needs of children after the death of a loved one. In 1989, Mrs. Bohme and Dr. Richardson co-founded The WARM Place. They secured space on the campus of Cook Children's Medical Center and began to assemble a board, staff and volunteers, with Peggy Bohme serving as Executive Director. The WARM '-The WARM Place
