My grandfather would take his mother-in-law, Maria Lozano, to tend to the family graves at San Fernando #1. She said that he was very good to the dead. After she passed away in 1942 and her daughter in 1952, my mother assumed the family tradition, often taking her children with her. Later, her children ended up taking her. My mother was concerned that no one would tend to the graves after her death. I am trying to continue the tradition despite living miles away, but have begun using this site to leave virtual memorials, and also to identify the grave sites, should any one else wish to visit, or if our own children wish to continue. This tradition is rapidly disappearing. Also, concerning the Lozano family, there were not a great number of descendants from these decedents. In most cases, there is no one left to cherish their memory. I wish to keep their memory alive, even if only virtually, especially the little ones, who were here for only a precious brief time.
