El Día de los Muertos (November 1-2) is a hybrid of pre-colonial native
Mexican and Spanish Catholic practices, combining the solemnity of
a holy day with the humor of an enormous party. As a means to connect
the living with the memory of their departed loved ones, families
decorate gravesites or build altars in their homes using photographs,
special breads, candies and other foods, as well as decorations in the
shapes of tombstones, flowers, skulls, and skeletons. The ofrenda is
designed to reflect those things most enjoyed by the family's loved
one during their life.
