The Buddies are five props created for a Dia de Los Muertos service at the UUFH in 2015, in which I participated and sang with the choir. That year I was on the special committee to help with Sunday services and The Buddies were used in that service as well as for future performances I did at other locations. They were not created as sacred items, but I do think of them as symbolic of ancestors. They are made of branches, papier mache, paint, and ribbons.
