    Have you had experience with the paranormal? Ghostly or unexplainable happenings?

    I would like to know this too please.

    Me too especially when you are there by yourself and it's all quiet.... :#

    @JaneiR36 If a vault isn't used then the weight of the dirt will make the casket cave in our time and bugs could get. Vaults prevent that from happening. I have seen a disinterment once and the casket looked perfect, no dirt or bugs.

    @PowerMan40 I knew someone would ask that :D "Angel's Lust" is a myth. Once you're dead your blood stops flowing. Since erections are caused by excess blood flow to the penis, it would make it impossible to have a hard on. Sorry man!

    @Heartisalonelyhunter I have never had anyone move, but they can make a burping sound when you are transferring them front table to table. We use eye caps (which are like contact lenses with ridges in them) to keep the eyes closed and the help them maintain their natural shape. The eyes begin to dehydrate sink in within 8 hours.

    @melmelw03 Absolutely :smile: We have a rental casket with a removal insert (the bed). When the service is over, we take the insert out and bury you. Wha-La, just like that! Some cemeteries require a vault and others do not. Ever cemetery has their own rules and regulations.

    Woo hoo! Because I'm such a bargain shopper. This is exciting news! Now I just need to shop around to see a if anyone local offers coupon deals. And I'm legit serious.

    Groupon maybe?
