Dear Stanlee!
I got the money from Your Foundation and gave it to mom.
She feels quite well, although it is very hot now, the temperature during the day has been above 30 degrees for almost a month. This is very unusual for us and we are not accustomed to such a prolonged heat.
We have received your letter with such wonderful heartfelt words. When I read it to my mother, she even had tears in her eyes. She was very pleased to receive such a message.
We wish you all the best.
Yours respectfully
Marina

Dear Stanlee,
I received your letter. Thank you so much for the wonderful kind words. Very touched. Unfortunately, people began to forget about those terrible cruel times. Then we tried to help as much as we could, to everyone who needed help. Of course, my mother provided the main help, I just helped her, did what I was instructed to do. All the more precious to me is your high appreciation of my modest contribution to saving several lives. I wish you all peace, prosperity, and health.-Tamara
