Steve,
 
I appreciate your encouragement to add my family bios to your website. I want our sons and their children to know their Volga German heritage. It is an important legacy I want to pass on to them.
 
Thank you for all the good work you have done for Volga German descendants.
 
Best Regards,

Steven,


Thanks for your comment on my blog, and thanks so much for your website and all the work you've put into it. I've read the site thoroughly, a number of times, and watched your video documentary, From the Russian Steppe to the Pacific Northwest:  The Germans from Russia in Portland, Oregon. The work you've put into it and the stories told really make the community and the time period come alive for me. If it weren't for your work, this era would be so difficult to access, and being able to hear some of the stories of the German community has greatly helped spur my interest in the area's history.  It's really exciting to me to be able to think of Albina as a living community through its history.

I'm sure I'll be referencing your website in the future! 

Thanks so much,
