Nicole from Lower Columbia College (WA) wrote, "Dear Mr. Wiener, Your story was very touching; it brought tears to my eyes more than once. It reminded me to be humble and grateful for what I have and not to forget to recognize the blessings that God gave me. You are a man that stands as a role model for my generation; someone with passion, kindness and love in his heart for everyone. Thank you so much."

The Daily News in Longview, WA quoted Britta, who attended Wiener's talk with her political science classmates:

 "I felt privileged to hear about the Holocaust from a survivor. It made me thankful for how lucky I am that I didn’t have to go through something like that." Another student, Richelle, saw Wiener speak before, and this time she took her 15-year old daughter along to hear him too. "It was so inspiring!" http://shar.es/HLiyZ
