HOUSTON – For the first time this year, a Houston-area funeral home held a Day of the Dead festival to honor the celebration and reunite with the spirits of loved ones who had passed on.
The festival took place at Woodlawn Funeral Home and Garden of Memories in north Houston. It featured music such as a Mariachi group folklorico dancers, and food trucks.
Our KPRC 2 Photographer Doug Burgess takes you to the sights and sounds of the festival in the video player above.
