This Christian holy day is observed by many Western churches and by some Eastern churches on the first Sunday after Pentecost. "It is instituted to honour all the saints, known and unknown, and, according to Urban IV, to supply any deficiencies in the faithful's celebration of saints' feasts during the year," according to The Catholic Encyclopedia. Surviving family members often go to cemeteries and wash the tombstones of their ancestors and then decorate them. While each community has its own traditions, the rituals generally take the form of a family feast commemorating the dead and celebrating the living. Public festival events include live music, Mariachis, and folklorico dancers.
