Mark Tripodi, MBA, CEO/Founder
Christi Tripodi, FounderMark and Christi Tripodi are the Founders of Cornerstone of Hope, a Center for Grieving Children, Teens and Adults founded in Cleveland in 2003 after the death of their 3-year-old son, Bobby. This was the catalyst for their deep reversion back to the Catholic Church. The Tripodi’s felt God’s call to provide a “place” where those grieving could go for comprehensive support. Cornerstone has served over 50,000 individuals and professionals seeking support, education and hope in their 20 years of operation. Cornerstone of Hope expanded its bereavement support services to Columbus in 2011 and opened a Christian Counseling center in Lima in 2014. Yet, their most rewarding and humbling job is being parents to their 9 children. “We are a family just like any other family, FAR FROM PERFECT, but our family is centered on Christ due to the loss of our son who helped us to prioritize our faith.”
