This error is ubiquitous in the N.O. church. Sunday on All Souls' Day the priest just turned the whole Mass into a "Celebration of Life" for all people who have died. He said it was a "Catholic Memorial Day" in which we recall all the 'good things' about our deceased relatives & friends. He went on to say that All Saints was to remember the "heroes of faith" and All Souls was for "the rest of us."
