Information about a Slavic or Orthodox only custom

[Jerry Sabo]

Would someone be able to confirm and explain a custom of families
gathering at gravesites the Sunday AFTER Easter to have a "picnic-like"
meal on the gravesite which is first tidied up?  Is this a Slavic
custom, and what Slavic groups would practice it or simply the custom of
Eastern Orthodox Christians?   I am aware of the Spanish custom
commemorating all souls in November, but this is supoosedly after
Christian Easter.
    Please reply to my address, and then I will be glad to provide a
summary for the list.   Thank you.  Jerry Sabo
