    Ms. Mary Andrade, it was great to hear your voice and helping the students discover and learn something about El Dia de los Muertos. All the students were very happy and excited to talk and listen to a famous author and admirable photographer. Please keep in touch and we will be sending you some pictures of our altar. Best Regards,

    4th graders and Ms. E from Las Vegas. Hope to see you soon.

    It was a pleasure for me to talk to all of you about how important it is to honor the life of a person who have died and also to keep the culture that we have inherited. I will be happy to post the photo of your altar on this site.
