El Campo Santo Part 2

El Campo Santo Inc. is the non-profit corporation that overseas all three cemeteries 
belonging to Atrisco heirs.
"My mother was very important to me," heir Sig Sanchez explains as he kneels proudly
 next to his mothers grave.
Santa Clara overlooks the city on it's hill top location on the West Mesa.
Houses surround the cemetery, one of the results of the land being sold. 
Atrsico Heritage Foundation is currently making efforts in beautification projects 
to better maintain these sacred lands, and also providing heirs and non-heirs with low 
cost and no-cost burial and cremation services.
