Brother Michael’s Life and Suffering

Michael Allen Gaworski, born in Tulsa, Oklahoma on July 31, 1958, was the first son of Richard and Wynona Gaworski. The Gaworski family moved to Saint Paul, Minnesota when Michael was four months old. He was raised in a strong Catholic family and later in life was joined by three brothers and one sister.

Michael suffered with childhood asthma, and this made him very vulnerable to lung infections. Years later, as a young adult, an event would occur related to this which changed his life and the life of our brotherhood forever.
