Both are gravediggers, or locally called “sepultureros,” of the Carreta Cathedral Cemetery located along M.J. Cuenco Avenue in Cebu City.
Roy took this job after his grandfather died in 2009. Before he worked as a gravedigger, he was a construction worker. In every service they take, Roy said they usually receive P500 in exchange.
