Case Study – A Blended Cultural Farewell
Recently, we supported a Penshurst family who wanted both a Buddhist blessing and a modern memorial. We worked with their temple to arrange a morning chanting ceremony, followed by an afternoon gathering in a local hall with music, shared memories, and live-streaming for overseas relatives. It brought together every element of their loved one’s identity.
