Tradition

Ancestral Altar

We keep a family shrine to honor those who have past. We are Okinawan, so it’s a bit different from the way Japanese people do it but close enough.

Living by the bay

To me, one of the best parts of living on Long Island, besides being able to visit the city very often, is also being able to be close to the water.
