A Polish woman cares for the grave of her deceased relative. Poles are embarrassed to leave a grave uncared for on All Saints Day. Often before the holiday, they clean graves in anticipation of the family’s visit and the glances of other families visiting nearby graves. (IMB Photo by Kelvin Joseph)
