Hi Eli, I just wanted to tell you that the family tree was a huge hit at Eliran's bar mitzvah. Even before the guests arrived, I found our caterer and her staff staring at the tree. When the guests arrived, they gathered around it and wanted to know who made it. Many of my relatives, including my kids, asked for copies, and I also put a copy on Facebook for the relatives who could not make it to the bar mitzvah. I am already thinking about the next version for my daughter's bat mitzvah!

אלי שלום, רוצה להודות לך על תמונת קולאז' נפלאה מעין כמוה. ההורים שלי התרגשו מהמתנה לחתונת הזהב ותלו את התמונה בחדר הסלון תוך 20 דקות. כל המשפחה נהנית מן התמונה כאשר נכנסים לביתם של סבא וסבתא

My parents in law really loved the picture. They said it was the best present that they had ever received. They were so surprised by it. They had never seen anything like it before and that made it even more special for them. They particularly liked the way that you had combined all the photographs and the wedding invitation within the family tree. Many thanks again for all that you did. We will be sure to recommend you to all of our friends…. Stephen

We are from Australia and we found the details of 'Shorashim teud mishpachti" while searching the net preparing for our sons Bar Mitzvah. We wanted something unique to present to our family on this special occasion. From the moment we contacted Eli it was a pleasure to work with him. We were apprehensive about sending information accross the globe but there was not one time where I thought that the distance was an issue. Eli and his staff were very helpful and the culmination of six months work of collating all the information about our large families was a magnificent family tree. Each family member received an A3 size copy at the Bar Mitzvah, our relatives were awed with the enormity of the project and the beautiful presentation so beautifully put together by the wonderful team of Shorahsim teud-mishpachti. I would highly recommend this project to anyone whose family heritage is important to them. We ahve already disembarked on our next roots project. Malcolm and Sonia Slonim Melbourne, Australia

Eli, you did a great job. The Katz-Feidman Family reunion was enriched by the great family tree. Everyone was checking to which branch they belong. The grandchildren, great-grandchildren are very busy with all kinds of statistics - how many were named after whom, how many live in Israel, who lives where. They now know who the people are when we mention names. Thanks for the great job done.

Dear Eli – hi! Many, many, many thanks for your amazing work, your patience, your smile and the wonderful idea of creating this record of my family! No words can describe my family’s excitement when they arrived at the hall and, there in front of them, saw the framed pictorial family tree. People simply stood there, so moved that they wept. Without a doubt producing this permanent record was the most important thing we could have done for the family. We recommend that every family should make a similar family tree – it is the most fascinating experience and the end result lasts forever. My family never stop thanking us, and we owe those thanks to you! Keep up your great work. Suri and Keren Kara and all members, including all generations, of the Abud Levy family.

Shalom Eli, We want to thank you with all our hearts for the family tree you made for our grandmother’s 85th birthday. Thank you for the precise and esthetic way you designed it. Thank you for your patience, your capacity to listen, your courtesy and for keeping to our timetable. We enjoyed both the process and the result, and we acquired a truly original and meaningful gift for Grandma. She shows the picture proudly to anyone who crosses her threshold…

Thanks for everything – for your talent, your professionalism, the way you handled the project and the speed of your work. Looking at the end result, it’s really hard to believe that we began it only two weeks ago, and in fact began with only 30% of the information…. It was really a pleasure to work with you!

The “roots” picture you made for us was the focus of attention on the Shabbat bar mitzvah “pilgrimage” for our son. The picture is beautiful and our guests were thrille d to receive a copy of it in poster form as a take-home souvenir. Thank you for the first-rate result and for being so patient. It was good to work with you during the pressured preparation time leading up to the event. The picture now adorns the living room in our house and steals the show from all the other pictures hanging there. We enclose a photograph of us taken at the celebration. With best wishes, Gil and Orit Klopshtock

We send you our thanks, blessings and appreciation for the beautiful process and product that resulted from our family tree, produced in celebration of our son’s bar mitzvah. Eli accompanied us patiently, thoughtfully and intensively through its preparation, always paying attention to every detail. We felt that we were full partners in the responsibility of ensuring the family tree would be accurate, in terms of the information it contained, and attractive. The large picture came with us on the Shabbat of the bar mitzvah. It took family members from Israel and abroad by surprise – in fact they were moved to tears. Friends and acquaintances were equally fascinated and curious about it. The picture definitely contributed greatly to the atmosphere of the day and proved an effective way of transmitting the message of passing on a legacy from one generation to the next. Our warmest thanks.

We wanted to let people know that while we were looking for original ideas for our daughter Maya’s bat mitzvah, we came across a wonderful website – www.shorashim-teud.co.il. Behind it is an imaginative, creative, pleasant, patient and caring man. Right from the first meeting we realized that the outcome would be top quality and impressive. Eli, we enjoyed working with you: amending, adding, altering, moving and finally receiving the most beautiful historical record for our daughter Maya. Thank you for absolutely everything.

The party and the surprise element of the roots tree we had made for our parents were wonderful! People talked the whole evening about the idea and the picture itself. Everyone was very happy to see themselves represented in it and even happier to receive a small version in an original poster format. The large picture is already framed and hanging in my parents’ house, and everyone who visits is led over to admire it. So… once again I want to thank you for your outstanding work and your patience in attending to all the small details and changes right up to the final printing. I would be very happy to collaborate with you in future through my work as an events organizer, and to recommend your projects to my clients. I already referred one friend to you, who would like to have a family tree made for her own family. Her name is

Many thanks and congratulations on the uniquely exciting result of your efforts. The decorative family record you made for the bat mitzvah was a real work of art. You are an artist who is able to work in the spirit of the times and I thank you for your beautiful work, which now enhances the decor of my home. We displayed the picture at the reception and very many people were thrilled by it – both the idea and the incredible timing. It was presented to the grandmothers at the ceremony with blessings and tears of love.

Hi Eli, The family tree had the most amazing reactions. People examined it, took a great interest and were impressed. Those who were included in it were especially happy to see themselves there. The older generation liked the idea of it as a legacy and many came to tell us how excited they were by such a terrific idea. The tree attracted great attention and many people not related to the family also expressed an interest. The guests loved it – it is a wonderful idea that added a special quality to the party. Thank you so much. Enoch Family

Our daughter Noa celebrated her bat mitzvah a few days ago. The family tree you made for us made an exciting and eye-catching surprise for all our family and friends. Throughout the evening people came to look, reliving memories inspired by the picture and sharing their family stories. At the end of the evening we distributed miniature versions as a gift to each family and according to their reaction, it was the best gift they could have received. There is no doubt that the family tree added to the intimate family ambience. We thank Eli Goren for his professional work. Throughout the process he made suggestions, was at pains to make improvements wherever necessary and presented us with a top quality, very attractive product. For anyone whose family matters to them – don’t hesitate, lose no time in ordering such a special record. It makes the most wonderful memento!! Nitzan Family

I want to thank you very, very much for the wonderful work you did on Ruth’s tree. She was so thrilled and happy, as too were all the other family members who came. One of them (I don’t recall who) described it as: “The gift of the century!” The gesture of giving a souvenir (a miniature tree) to all the guests was really moving, and I thank you for that idea too. Many, many thanks, Arnon

Dear Eli Goren, I want to express my thanks to you for the family tree that you prepared for the Shabbat Hatan held for our son’s bar mitzvah. The tree stood at the entrance to the dining room, which had been prepared for us from Friday lunch time until Saturday evening. Firstly, all the guests were totally taken by surprise, and almost everyone found themselves on the tree. Then, in the hotel rooms, all the family members found their own personal copy of the tree, which was even more exciting for them. Apart from our own guests, other Shabbat Hatan occasions were being held there and people started to come to our dining room between meals just to see the tree, and sought me out to ask how it was made and share their enthusiasm about it. So I wanted to thank you both for the work itself and also for your great patience with all the changes and all our “whims”. Thanks for everything, Noam Family

Delightful, beautiful, superb!! These were the reactions we heard last night at the family bat mitzvah party for our daughter Maya. The large picture was on show at the start of the evening and all the guests took great interest in it. Towards the end of the evening the family received a souvenir copy of it, which came as a real surprise. Our guests were so appreciative and commented that the family tree – both the idea and the end product – went a long way towards creating the warm family atmosphere. Thank you, Eli and everyone involved in the work, for your patience and for the wonderful result. Now we have a really special memento of the occasion. Amalia and Ronen Harran

“I can’t believe it! This is the most fantastic present I ever received, tailor made just for me, with all the family names, dates and photographs of my brother Uri, my parents, the whole family. An incredible idea! The picture is gorgeous! I am speechless!” That was my father’s reaction when we gave him the family tree. In all my adult life I don’t ever remember hearing such an excited, passionate response from my father. I was so amazed by his reaction that I was simply stunned and couldn’t respond. And the rest of the family were equally keen on it too. All of them! From the calmest right down to the youngest. All of them. I stood in the center of the circle, holding the picture, for about a quarter of an hour and they simply couldn’t stop staring, commenting and being carried away. Eli, I don’t think I can thank you any more than what I described above. It was just perfect!

I have to mention how patient and open-minded Eli was during the design process and in deciding the layout of all the details. Our guests admired the picture over and over again.

At Michael’s bar mitzvah celebration we placed the family tree in the entrance to the hall and it proved a major point of attraction for everyone. Naturally, it was a great source of interest to all our relatives, but to our surprise other guests were just as interested and impressed too. We spent the whole of Saturday – for the aliya l’Tora – in a hotel, where we stood the picture in the dining room, and at every meal people continued to go up to it, ask questions, express an interest and show their enthusiasm. It is obviously a product that took much thought and hard work and also a fantastic memento to be treasured by future generations too. It was quite hard for us to collect up information about previous generations, since our parents are elderly and don’t remember all the details. We hope that this unique family tree will make it easier for younger generations to continue their heritage into the future. For us, the picture is also a way of commemorating family members who died in the Holocaust and were killed in terrorist attacks. Thank you, Eli, for the idea and the work, and for your kindness and patience throughout the process. When we have photographs of the party, we will send you a picture of the family with the tree in the background.

It was such a pleasure working with Eli. I was putting together a family tree/collage for my father's 70th birthday. All of our contact was by email. Eli was so easy to work with, so patient and so professional. He sent several drafts and made it so easy for me to make changes. It was definitely a partnership

It was a real pleasure working with Eli to produce the family tree for my mother's 60th birthday. Eli sent a total of nine drafts via email until we reached the beautiful final product. He dealt with changes from three of us simultaneously and always provided the desired changes effortlessly and with so much patience. It was a lot of work for all concerned but a real masterpiece was created which my mum loved and is hanging in the dining room and will be forever cherished. I recommend shorashim and Eli Goren most highly for a project like this one
