Happy Day of the Dead!

November 1st is a special day in Mexican culture, when it is believed that deceased family members can return to the land of the living to visit their family and friends. It is a day of celebration and connection, where we remember those dear to us.

In honor of the Day of the Dead, we at the Warren Heritage Society honor and remember all who have contributed to our mission and helped us grow to what we are today. These are only a few of who we are honoring today.

Feliz Día de los Mu***os!

El primer día de Noviembre es un día especial en la cultura de México, porque se cree que familiares fallecidos pueden regresar al mundo de los vivos para visitar a sus familiares y amigos. Es un día de celebración y conexión, donde recordamos a quienes somos queridos.

En honor al Dia de los Mu***os, nosotros en la Warren Heritage Society honramos y recordamos a todos los que han contribuido a nuestra misión y nos han ayudado a crecer a lo que somos hoy. Estos son solo algunas de los estamos honrando hoy.

Not everyone believes in ghosts and ghouls, but I'm sure we can all agree that this photo causes a case of the heebie jeebies!

While it may look scary, its actually just a photo showing some of the inner workings of the Avtex Fiber Plant. If you look at the top of the photo, you can see that the lights are on in the plant, and its simply the camera flash creating such an ominous aura!

Although that handprint still looks a little spooky to us! 👻
