This touching note to Elsa Hominda was written by Judith Murphy, a woman who worked with CHSW's Search and Reunion Adoption Program to reunite with her birth mother.

“Elsa, thanks so much for all your help and guidance. Without you I would not have discovered how very fortunate my mother was in life. Thanks to CHS, she was placed with a family who gave her the love, nurturing and values that made her the wonderful woman she was. The Doe’s gave her life, but the Smith’s made her wonderful. So I will be forever grateful to CHS for making a fantastic life possible for my mother, and of course to you for helping find all this out.” – Judy, November 2011
