BROADCAST TRANSCRIPT:
One Catrina’s honors her loved ones at Hotsoric cemetary park as she continues the family tradition.
Guiding our loved ones through the bridge who have passed to the smells of the Cempasuchil flower is why La Catrina’s Picazos, a Garces High School student, started training when she was just ten years old.
Carmen Piczo her mother explains, “She started asking questions about it and I introduced her to it, we talked about what the world would be.”
That world has taken her 16-year-old daughter to perform in Mexico City and LA in San Pedro and now Saturday at Historic Union Cemetery.
