“You achieve immortality not by building pyramids or statues – but by engraving your values on the hearts of your children, and they on theirs, so that our ancestors live on in us and we in our children, and so on until the end of time.” Rabbi Lord Jonathan Sacks (1948 -2020)

"There are no words to describe how much we enjoyed meeting new family as well as seeing family we already know. I cannot properly express our appreciation for the hard work Milton and Brian did making this reunion and memorial as wonderful as it was. The only downside is that we didn't have even more time together. It was probably the most meaningful experience of my life!"
"Even though I'm approaching 80 the whole
experience of walking the same streets that
Peep and his relatives walked was unforgettable. It was great to meet you all and Linda and I wish everyone the very best."
"Let me add my gratitude for such meaningful days. What a gift to be with family from near and far. Special thanks to Brian and Milton"
Eric Hicks
"Thank you all for bringing me so much closer to my history, and my truth."

Thanks to my distant cousin Milton who has been so helpful and such as inspiration to me since I discovered my birth father was part of this huge family. This article opens my eyes and helps me to understand our origins and our struggles to survive as a family through the heartache that was Germany. Thank you to my now deceased father for bringing me into such a wonderful and storied family, even if, it was through a back door.
