All Saints Day 2014. Spent a windy and brisk afternoon at the historic Biloxi Cemetery with Mom visiting and cleaning the tombs of family members. Numerous other families were doing the same - although the tradition is not as strong as decades ago when the cemetery would have been packed with visitors. The one tradition that seems to have not waned is placing the obligatory yellow chrysanthemums on graves. It is comforting in our hectic world to see traditions maintained as they give us a tangible link to our past.
