During a traditional Hawaiian memorial service, every one wears white to celebrate life rather than grieve death. Ti leaves and alae salt are carried to chase away evil spirits and bless houses, and pregnant women are not allowed to go to any gravesites or mortuaries due to the superstitions of spirits trying to take over the unborn.
