0:00A: You love Día de los Muertos.
0:02B: I do, yeah. It’s very -- I find it comforting to think like there’s a day that they come back.
0:08A: Your grandfather was a big person for you, huh?
0:12B: He was.
0:13A: Who was he in the world?
0:16B: Uh, he was a father and a friend and an avid fisherman.
0:25A: He was a great father.
0:28B: Yeah, and my only father. I didn’t know my dad, and he stepped up.
0:33A: So if this video were his shrine, what would you think it would be important to say or have inscribed on the internet?
0:44B: I think just treat each other fairly, treat each other kindly. I feel like that’s always what he did. My mom always described him as he would give you the shirt off his back. He always welcomed any kid that needed help into his house. Like. Yeah, just love each other.
1:07A: I appreciate it. Yeah, it’s really nice to be with you both. I love you both so much. I appreciate you just bringing your heart right here.
1:15B: Yeah, didn’t think I was gonna do that tonight, but here we are.
1:19A: Didn’t think you would either.
1:21B: Yep, it’s funny, you don’t realize how raw it is until you start talking about it. It’s like, oh yeah, that still hurts. Shit. So yeah.
1:36A: Well, you look good with your heart on your sleeve. I’ll let you know.
1:39B: Thank you.
1:40A: I’ll dignify your grief.
