All Saints' Day is for all the known and unknown saints who have died and gone before us and who are at rest with Christ.

Ephrem of Syria and John Chrysostom, both Eastern Church Fathers, call ed this day the feast of martyrs of the whole world. Pope Gregory IV (827-8 44) made November 1st as the feast day for all the Saints. ~ Catholic Encyc lopedia
