Tribute to Michael Shaffer

We honor and remember our Chief Executive Officer, Michael Shaffer, whose sudden passing has left a profound loss for Pinebrook Family Answers and the wider community. Mike was a leader whose vision, humility, and deep belief in the power of support and connection shaped Pinebrook in lasting and meaningful ways. His unwavering commitment to the well‑being of children, adults, and families continues to guide our work and will be felt across the Lehigh Valley for years to come.

As a lasting reflection of his life and legacy,Ā The Michael Shaffer Memorial Fund at PinebrookĀ has been established by his family. This fund will carry forward Mike’s spirit of care by providing short‑term assistance to families in crisis, supporting Pinebrook staff members in times of need, and fostering initiatives that strengthen our agency’s culture and care for one another.

We invite our community to join us in holding Mike’s family in compassion and in honoring the profound impact of his life, leadership, and enduring legacy.
