A Book of Comfort
Lori's book, Remember My Soul, came out at the same time my beloved Mother died....I don't know what I would have done without her book. It brought comfort and insight and was like having a close, trusted friend nearby at all times. I'm forever grateful to Lori for writing this book. Nine years later, I am still reading it, learning from it, and feeling its comfort and wisdom. Thank you, Lori.

Inspiring
Thanks Lori for your wonderful video.
I found it very inspiring and uplifting, and I have come to expect nothing less from you.
I think there is so much to love in Judaism, and it saddens me that we Jews pay so much more attention to non-Jewish concepts than we do to Jewish concepts.
Please keep up the good work.
From one of your fans in Hamilton, Ontario.

Excellent! Thank-you so very much!
B"H
Thank-you so very much for making this video, and making a very salient point, i.e., that B'nei Yisrael should NOT define their beliefs by what they DO NOT believe!
If this video was played in every synagogue throughout the world, and the message adopted, then things would change for the better, and numerous Jews would be retrieved back to the faith of Israel - Derekh HaShem.

Us and Them
I am one of 'Them' but I want to thank Lori for helping me understand my Jewish roots. After all our faith stems from Judaism and I find your teachings so helpful.
