“…This was a momentous occasion. I cannot thank you enough for participating in this moment of Silence.Thank you so much. Nothing to can replace this feeling I have for Japan and the motivation I have to move forward and continue our support in Tohoku. I especially thank the people who are up to their knees in mud and trash everyday during the clean up operations in the north. You guys are the best! ”–dwayne wayne Founder of Rescue Japan
