The Katz Family

Dear Natasha and Dan,
My deepest compliments to you and “Happy Families” for making my Lori’s dream come true. I also wish to extend my sincerest thanks to you, Natasha and Dan, for making me a grandmother. Suffice to say, my husband and I idolize our grandson; he has made our lives complete.

From the minute we were met in Moscow by your driver we felt very safe. We were met in Voronezh by Valentina and again we felt safe and secure.

Fully aware that International Adoption is a complex, intricate and complicated procedure, Lori and I put ourselves totally in the hands of your coordinators. We both were impressed and overwhelmed by their energy and teamwork. We found Tatiana (if necessary she could move the mountains), Luba and Julie to be extraordinary human beings, most professional, dedicated and extremely competent people. They had a gargantuan task to perform and they succeeded with utmost speed and efficiency. We applaud all their efforts (tell them this) and we must confess to you they are, indeed, valuable assets to your organization.

We felt comfortable in our host home. Leo and his dear family’s kind and gracious hospitality was truly most appreciated. Honestly, we were too nervous to eat.

To top it off, meeting you both personally and drinking a Champagne toast to our adoption was such a sweet and thoughtful gesture on your part.

I’d be remiss not to say our Joshua Yuri is a lucky baby and we are lucky to have him as our own. In just a short time he has adjusted beautifully and has blossomed into a handsome happy baby who still looks like his grandma and is brilliant like his mother. Rest assured, he will want for nothing and we will give him a loving and wonderful life.

Again, thank you for a job well done. We wish you good luck in your labor of love and continued success in all your future endeavors.Most gratefully,
Mrs. Marilyn Katz (Lori’s mother)
