Best Answer

White is a symbol of purity. White is a symbol of purity, but it may also be because of the fact that the child might have been caught in the crossfire of something that he wasn't really involved with. One last thought, white coffins could stand for innocence in that the child was below the age of accountability, that is, to not be aware of his own sin.
