Q: Could you explain the concept of a
"plain pine box?"
Just as it is with the shroud, the plain
pine box is a symbol of simplicity and
equality. However, there is no mandatory
requirement that pine should be used. At
one time pine was inexpensive, soft and easy
to work with. We have many caskets that are
free of metal and nails, referred to as
"kosher" or "orthodox" caskets.
