    Duane , I also have worked in the funeral business as an attendant to the families and caring for their loved ones and their needs . This gave me a really delightful chuckle !! Bless you for sharing your gift with others . The funeral business these days is so impersonal and it's nice to see there are people out there who still embrace that " HUMAN TOUCH !

      Hi Naomi, I made a coffin for my dad.
      He just passed a couple about a month ago. You dad has an amazing story.
      I share his sentiments about getting back to the old way.

      I absolutely I loved listening to your grandpa talk. ❣️ He has such a great gravely voice that is very soothing to listen to.
      I enjoyed this video probably as much as any video I have ever seen. I loved his sense of humor, his humble personality that clearly shows through and his business sense is awesome !
      So sorry for your loss.

    Hello. My name is Carlos. I have seriously been thinking about making caskets. Mostly for families who are strapped for cash during times of grief due to the loss of a loved one. Do sell the plans for this particular casket?

      @@nomiet.9258 Around April, 2010? How is Mrs. Severson? Love your dad's thoughts on the old tradition of family handling the burial of loved ones. He was a great story-teller. Reminds me of some of my uncles (also from MN).
