Richard Sigler 1914-1998 Co-founder of Carmel Temple

Carmel Temple’s co-founder, Richard Jefferson Sigler, and his wife, Charlotte, in 1970, were led by their inner guidance, through meditation, to build Carmel Temple, as an instrument of enlightenment, healing, and especially love, which would be brought to many. It continues to fulfill that mission. Richard was the inventor of the machine that enables us to successfully transplant large, living trees. His tree-transplanting business really began to take off when the decision was made and acted upon to begin Carmel Temple. It helped fund the early work on the building.
