During April of this year (2002) I joined Origin Club out of pure curiosity and within 24 hrs I received a response from a very interesting lady living in Ukraine.  We began to correspond with each other on a regular basis and in September of this year I proposed to her and she accepted. I sent an invitation to her via fax and after application by the SA embassy in Kiev
she received her visa and arrived in SA in November.  We are now very happily married and for both of us Our story from the day we met each other through Origin Club..... until today .... is like an impossible dream that has been made possible for us.  We still have every single e-mail and every photo that we ever sent to each other (over 400) and we intend to keep them for the rest of our lives together.    The memories are fantastic and now that we are together ...... we build more every day.  
We both send Our heartfelt gratitude to all of you at Origin Club......because the one thing that we will never forget is exactly HOW our paths in life crossed. We are from two separate countries that are thousands of miles apart and we therefore know that if it were not for Origin Club we never would have had the opportunity to touch each others lives with such
joy and happiness as we do now .... and always will. We believe completely that it was and is Our destiny to be together....... but we thank you that you assisted us in making it all possible. Once again we say THANK YOU to all of you and wish all of you a merry
Christmas.  We pray that you may be blessed in bringing only joy and happiness into the lives of others......as you have done for us.

You have our support and always will

Sincerely
Trevor and Liya O'Brien
