Despite the threat of rain on All Souls Day, many people turned out to both Corrovorrin and Drumcliffe Cemeteries for the annual Blessing of the Graves and prayers for the faithful departed. Earlier in the day, prayers were offered at the Columbarium in the Cathedral. Our thanks to Pat Hanrahan for the photos.
