The ancestral hall holds a traditional Chinese family altar: a portrait of the founding fathers sits in the center, with customary ornaments and offerings, and a large (and complete) collection of name plates of past members surrounds the altar. An American flag juxtaposed to the altar symbolizes symbolizes the union of the American values with the Chinese heritage. Almost as revered are the people listed on the donations board, along with the photos of their beneficiaries, who are students attending high school on scholarships. |
