Members of the Latino community throughout San Diego County are celebrating the Day of the Dead holiday this week.

The ancient Dia de los Muertos holiday is a time to celebrate those who have died and its most well known icon is “La Calavera Catrina” - the skeleton of a high class woman.

A county Day of the Dead celebration had plenty of Catrinas and their male counterparts, Catrins.
