Ron Gomes Casseres: I love the fact that you have decided to open up your important life’s work to members of MIE. I recall we talked about some of this when we last met at Nadya’s and I can only heartily applaud your decision. Hazak U’Baruch and masha masha danki.

    

Mali de Waard: Sandy, MASHA MASHA DANKI. We really appreciate your tireless input to make this project a reality! PABIEN!! and thank you from the entire Board and community of Mikve Israel Emanuel. 

 

Chicu Capriles: We should be thanking you for your all your wonderful work on these family trees. You are the talk of the town these days ! 

 

Lou Goldish: What a monumental job you have done.  

 

Rene & Els van Wijngaarden: Sandy, You have created a fantastic website and I am sure that all the work you though it must have been very hard work but also very rewarding. I am sure it will be very well received and hopefully a good example to all who are interested in Sephardic family history in the Caribbean basin. We are proud to be part of your family. Please keep up the good work. 

 

Ron Gomes Casseres: WOW ! I just picked up my two CDs and did a quick scan of the GC one … truly amazing. My respect and admiration to you ! I cannot help but think of my father and how much he would have enjoyed going through the hundreds of pages of true treasures. This will take quite some time for me to go through, but I can see already that it is a marvelous life’s work and grateful that you are sharing it with us. Hopi danki.

 

Lila Myers: I spent a magical evening going through at least part of my very own "tree". Sandy, you did a magnificent job. Of course I have seen over the years how much time, trouble, travel etc. you put into this effort and how you made sure that your information was correct. It was a gargantuan task and I congratulate you on the results. Not only did I find out who or where the de Marchenas were, but you followed up every side branch which I never even knew existed. This is a wonderful addition to our knowledge and I recommend it strongly to every descendant or near descendant of those people who took a deep breath and settled in virtually unknown places like Curacao, Panama, Cuba and wherever they went. And for the most part made a success of it. Good for you my friend. You really did it. Lila (Nieuwenhuijzen de Marchena) Myers.

 

Michele Russel-Capriles: I finally had time today to really study the family tree of the Capriles family. I can only image how the others are as well, incredible work you have done! Kudos.

 

Ena Dankmeijer: Hallo Sandy, Congratulations, you did a terrific job!!!!!....Again I have big admiration for you, I could not have done it. Masha masha danki for the work you have done for our future generation.

Larry Salas: Awesome and important body of work. It is so important for us to know our place in history and your work has allowed us to be able to do that. They can't articulate it yet, but our two children, as well as their children and descendants owe you a great debt of gratitude. Well done!

 

Françoise: Mon mari est très acharné sur notre ordinateur depuis la réception de ce splendide cadeau. Je ne saurais jamais comment vous remercier de ce travail inouï que vous avez réalisé. C'est à coup sûr le fruit de longues recherches et ce CD nous ouvre des horizons nouveaux et nous permet de remonter le temps encore plus avant.

 

John Morón: Spend some time admiring your webpage, I am very impressed.
I must say that I did not expect anything less from my favourate mother kalakuna.

 

Norman & Gerda Salas: Sandy....May you be blessed for the incredible work you've shown us.....your tremendous gesture will last a lifetime...thank you.
