Mayim Bloom walked over with a bouquet of dead roses in her hand and dropped them on a grave marker festooned with Mardi Gras beads and coins Sunday morning.
She might not be one of Cain’s “Merry Widows,” but the 4-year-old did her part to keep the spirit of Joe Cain alive during the traditional day that honors the late Confederate solider. Cain, more than 150 years ago, is credited with reviving Mardi Gras in Mobile following the Civil War and he has been celebrated on the Sunday before Fat Tuesday since the late 1960s.
