Dia De Los Muertos is a tradition that was started in Mexico but has been celebrated in many other countries, to celebrate the Circle of Life. Those who have passed on are no longer with us and we fail to mention or remember them on a daily basis. On November 1st, an altar is set up filled with pictures, candles, marigolds, toys, drinks, food, etc., of what our loved ones enjoyed to show our appreciation.
