In the serene village of Xiangheli in Kaohsiung, Taiwan region, a touching tradition has taken root over the past 20 years. Village chief Liu Dewen, affectionately known as \"The Ferryman of Souls,\" has dedicated his life to fulfilling the last wishes of local veterans.
Many veterans in Xiangheli have shared a common desire: to return home after passing away, to be laid to rest beside their families. Recognizing the profound significance of this wish, Liu Dewen made a promise to one veteran decades ago—a promise that has since evolved into a heartfelt mission.
Through unwavering commitment, Liu has facilitated the return of numerous veterans to their families, ensuring that their final resting places honor their sacrifices and love. His efforts have not only provided solace to grieving families but have also strengthened community bonds within Xiangheli.
The story of Liu Dewen and his enduring dedication serves as a remarkable example of compassion and service in the Taiwan region.
