There is no specific ruling on this, for reasons of uniformity it would be preferred the entire cortege would be the same color scheme- such as Brown or Black.- but there is no definite breed pattern Morgan horses were widely used by Police and Cavalry and now that the Army use of horses is merely nostalgic, well one does not know-Black having morbid overtones, One guesses they would try to get an all-black team for the hearse or Caisson, etc.

What kind of coffin was General Eisenhower buried in?

A Soldier's Casket A few details can be added with regard to the "soldier's casket". It was a square state design made of steel with stationary bar handles. The outer color was silver-gray. The interior consisted of eggshell colored crepe. Probably, the (former)Toccoa casket company had been the manufacturer. At the time of Eisenhower's death (1969), the US government provided this casket at a price of $ 80 for the funeral of its active or retired soldiers. The former president had expressed his will to be buried in one of these simple caskets. Nevertheless, he got a "special edition" because the standard military casket was custom equipped for him with an inner full glass lid to give it the feature of a hermetical seal, making it air and water tight. The additional price for this extra feature was $ 115. Thus, Dwight D. Eisenhower was buried in a $ 195 casket.

Selecting a Funeral Casket is an Emotional Experience?

Choosing a funeral casket is an emotional journey a loved one of the deceased must take, it is also a financial and practical one. With hundreds of caskets to choose from, how do you know which is the right one? Here are some steps to help you consider choosing the best casket for your dearly departed. Start with the basics, would you prefer a wood or metal casket. After this look at your budget and see what price range will better suite your financial situation, and then you can pick accordingly. After that it is a matter of personal preference, think of the colors that your lost loved one enjoyed, and what kind of personality did they have. Think of the deceased. What colors did they like? Were they reserved or exotic in taste, this will help you in choosing the right funeral casket for their personality. The types of wood available can vary. Think of what they would want, within reason, and select from those items. Was the deceased someone who didn't bother with frills? Or was this someone who wanted only the very best? There are caskets in every price range, from the plainest to the most "decked out"--it all depends on your preferences and budget. Also, there are special caskets for veterans, which show that pride of the armed forces in the artwork on the casket. Take someone with you. If you are having a hard time with the grieving and planning, give the task to another person or take someone with you to help you think more clearly. Make sure it is someone who knew the deceased well and knows your budget for the entire funeral and burial costs. Try to trust the funeral director's taste. Though a stranger, this person is who you can lean on for strength during this time. They know what they are doing, so trust their guidance and instinct. However, like all industries, they have to make money, too, so if it seems the funeral director is steering you toward something that is outside your budget, speak up. Know your rights. Funeral homes will tend to direct you to choose one of the caskets they offer, but you need to know this is not your only choice. You can choose and purchase a casket from an independent company (and have the funeral home use it, often times this will save you money. Check laws in your state first, though, governing discount caskets. Today, you have more options than ever before when looking for the perfect casket, so I would suggest sitting down and talking to a funeral director and have them explain to you the options. Most of the time the funeral home will have a casket room that can help show you the differences between the caskets, and all the options you can add to your funeral casket order.

What kind of casket was William Randolph Hearst buried in?

When the famous newspaper magnate died in 1951, he was buried in one of the most prestigious luxury caskets available - a seamless copper deposit casket manufactured by the National casket company of Boston, Mass. The casket, a round corner design with the type series designation No. 21200, was largely the same as that which had been used for the funeral of President Franklin D. Roosevelt a few years before. With walls of a thickness of 1/8 of an inch (about 3 mm) and a triple lid - an undivided outer lid, split inner panels and a full oval plate glass lid over the body of the deceased - the empty casket had a weight of some 700 lbs. The interior of the casket consisted of white hand tufted velvet. Hearst's casket was one of the most expensive ones available at that time because caskets made of electrolytically deposited copper cost up to a dozen times the price of caskets made of 32 oz sheets of wrought copper. Black & White photos (available on the Internet) taken at the Hearst funeral seem to indicate that his casket had a silver plated finish. This would have increased the high price of the casket for another 20%. For the Hearst family, price was of course no consideration.
