Hola a todos.
And that is the extent of my Spanish for the day.
I am writing to ask if any of you do anything for Dia de los Muertos. Do you set up an ofrenda or participate in some kind of event?

In past years I have set up an ofrenda; in recent years it has been to honor my #2 daughter who passed away in 2008, at age 38. Her daughters, and widowed husband (not Latino) have carried on setting up an ofrenda (her daughters were 5 yrs & 3 yrs at the time of her passing). They do not live near by, but I am happy to think that they are carrying on that part of her heritage (she used to set up a small ofrenda, and that is why they know about it).

So – if you do anything for DDLM (my shorthand), could you share some of your ideas. Gracias.
