Prepairing to say good-bye

It is with a heavy heart that I type this entry in the blog. The good news is that Jack's body will be back home as of tonight, and Tish will be with those who can comfort her as well. Last night I learned more about the purchasing of a casket on-line than I had ever wanted to know about.

Due to the costs of the (now cancelled) wedding, and all the fees for shipping Jack home Lucretia is trying to NOT NECESSARILY CHEAP-OUT...but be frugil when it comes to the funeral. There is so much drama going on with the wedding vendors, that this is a necessary evil...to be frugil. So she had asked me to find a place, on-line to purchase a casket for her brother which would be less expensive than purchasing it from the funeral home.

Did you know that you could buy a PRE-OWNED casket to place your loved one for eternity? (Needless to say, we are NOT going that route.)

Also, if you were a huge kiss fan, which Jack is...and had the dough to shell out; could have a Kiss themed coffin. (We're NOT going that route either.)

I did get Lucretia in contact with a company, which has moderatly priced caskets which are NEW, and can be delivered today.

Oh yeah, you can also purchase a casket from Costco or eBay as well.
