Pagans of all paths, please answer?

How are you planning to observe Samhain? What do you do to honor the dead?

Update:

Please be specific in your answers on your observances. How do you honor your ancestors? What do you do?

Update 2:

LabGrll: Not asking for That much specifics, but thanks for the link. I just meant in general terms like "I perform a ritual for the ancestors, which is too long or too personal to share"...that sort of thing. Blessed Samhain!

    My family is traditional Hispanic Pagan and we celebrate dia de los muertos or day of the dead. It mostly involves honoring past relatives and setting a place for them at the table. Also lots of eating and drinking.

    I honor the dead by carrying their stories... but I don't consider myself pagan.
