    I was in WV last summer visiting family friends. I gave them my business card and they laughed . It says , ''Slavin & Son's Bicycle and Casket Salvage' Then they asked me if I wanted one. Bicycle ? No,,casket. Off to the shed we went. Anyway , Her Grandfather was the casket maker in town in 1850 and this one was never used . They had painted it and used it in their Daughters room as a blanket chest. The girls never knew,,till right at that moment. The look on their faces was of surprise and being creeped out.

      Caskets are always fun to have around. I keep one in the garage in case the Mother in Law wants to spend the night.
