November 1st & 2nd are days for remembering, respecting and honoring dead loved ones in Mexico, many Latin American countries, Spain and Hollerdom.

The Holler is close to the border with Mexico and is blessed with a large Latin American population so the tradition has become familiar.

Marking the Day of the Dead began in Aztec times and was able to survive the cultural suppression of the missionaries.

I admire cultures that remember and remain connected to their deceased ancestors.

In memory and respect for all our ancestors, and for those who honor them~
