Then, the FEB UGM family was divided into two groups, namely, the group headed to (1) Sawit Sari Cemetery and Pogung Cemetery and (2) Kota Gede Cemetery. At each grave, the FEB UGM family met with representatives of the family of the deceased predecessor of FEB UGM. The FEB UGM family then sewed flowers, prayed together, took photos together, and remembered the predecessors of FEB UGM through life stories and the contributions of the deceased to FEB UGM.
