A Hui Hou: Until We Meet Again
A Hui Hou: Until We Meet Again
is a bereaved family's tribute to their lost husband and father.
I depicted all characters accurately to their appearance and ages in the story, using photo references of the family and their home in Hawaii. The book became a beautiful memorial and a story to help other families struggling with loss.
