To attend a death anniversary feast.
On the death anniversary, the family has a mass said at the
church for the deceased. Then friends are invited to eat at
the house. Usually a cow or pig is killed for this feast. A
small amount of food is put on a plate, and along with a
drink it is placed in the corner of an inside room for the
spirit of the deceased. This is done before the family and
guests eat and is called betang, meaning to place
something somewhere.
