IDENTIFY NOUN CLAUSE AND FUNCTION 1. DEATH, THAT INEVITABLE PHASE OF MAN'S EXISTENCE, IS A VERY INTERESTING TOPIC FOR MANY FILIPINOS 2. IN FACT, FILIPINO FAMILIES GATHERED WHEREVER THEIR DEARLY DEPARTED HAVE BEEN LAID TO REST TO CELEBRATE ALL SOUL'S DAY EVERY NOVEMBER 2, OR EVEN EARLIER THAN THAT. 3. MORE THAN REMEMBERING THE DEAD, THIS OCCASION, IN MEMORY OF WHOEVER THE DEARLY DEPARTED LOVED ONE MAY BE, ALSO MARKS FAMILY REUNIONS AND GATHERINGS. 4. EVERY ALL SOUL'S DAY, MY DAD AND MY MOM BRING WHATEVER FOOD IS AVAILABLE FOR CONSUMPTION, WHILE Ate AND I SET UP THE MASSIVE TENT THAT WE BROUGHT FROM HOME. 5. MY UNCLES AND AUNTS WHOM WE HAVE NOT SEEN IN AGES PROVIDE MATS AND MOSQUITO REPELLANT LOTION, TO ENSURE THAT NO INSECT BITES WOULD HARM US. THROUGH ALL THE CHAOS AND EXCITEMENT, THE FAMILY ANCHORS ON MEMORIALIZING OUR RELATIVES THROUGH LIGHT STORIES AND HEARTFELT PRAYERS.
