A simple matter of conscience.

I just finished arranging for a wooden casket made by the Trappist Monks, paying $25 a month automatically.  I do not bring this up lightly, but as a gesture of love for my family.  If you are Catholic, or have a special place in your heart for Monks, all the money goes directly to sustain them.  Caskets and Urns can be very simple, or quite splendid--depending on what you want. If you are interested, you may contact them at www.trappistcaskets.com.  I pray this is not too painful for anyone's consideration, as I offer it as a matter of conscience.  love, maureen
