Wow...I wasn't aware of this. Very beautiful sentiment.

Hey waring, I've been meaning to ask you if you knew Jose "Pipe" Dormoy, the infamous pilot who recently passed away.

Beautiful isn't it?

It carries on the following day.

If it is the pilot I am thinking of, no not personally, but I know many who did.

I just figured with him being quite a figure over there you might have known him. I was very close to him myself since he mostly resided here. He was my adopted grandfather.

I will have to look up more info today about Toussaint. That is really very interesting.

All Saint's Day & All Soul's Day is observed in many countries eg: France/Spain/Italy. It's a national holiday for them. Countries linked to France eg St Barts would have the same national holidays.
