2,000 years ago, Celts celebrated the precursor to Halloween (known as Samhain) on Oct. 31. It was a time to feast, prepare for winter, and welcome the souls of departed loved ones back home.

So, while trick-or-treating or enjoying a cozy night with your family, remember this special piece of Halloween history and how ancient celebrants paid tribute to their loved ones. 💚

In honor of Juneteenth, we would like to recognize Dr. Sarah Fraser. Born in Jan. 1850, her childhood home was a major stop on the Underground Railroad where she and her parents helped enslaved African Americans escape to freedom.

According to the Journal of the National Medical Association, even as a child, Sarah helped treat injuries and illnesses that people obtained during their escape. This remarkable work provided a foundation for her future: Sarah’s desire to help others drove her to earn a medical degree and become the fourth African American female physician in the country.

We honor Dr. Sarah Fraser and her remarkable legacy. Her dedication to emancipation, healing, and family are all powerful reminders of what we pay tribute to on this day.
