Each component of a Murray Funeral Home casket is crafted as one might create a family heirloom—an achievement that lasts, protects and pays tribute.  In an age of high-tech manufacturing automation, much of the work on a Murray Funeral Home casket is done by hand.  The end result is noticeable quality and lasting value.

Bronze, a semi-precious material and an alloy of copper and either zinc or tin, is the strongest and longest lasting of any casket construction material.   Bronze is resistant to corrosive elements, an important consideration in selecting a casket. Our bronze caskets are available with a hand-applied natural brushed finish.

Copper is considered a precious metal, and evidence of its longevity rests in the original copper roofs and pipes which survive in the world's great architectural gems.  Copper also resists corrosion. It is one-third stronger than stainless steel and available in 32-ounce weight.  Our copper casket finishes are natural, brushed, or painted; finishes are applied by skilled artisans. This natural and precious metal expresses a remarkable life. 

Today, Stainless Steel continues to provide the greatest value to families.  It offer the quality and durability of copper and bronze for the price of standard steel.

The long-lasting nature of metal combined with its affordability and performance make Steel caskets one of the most popular selections.  The range of colors—from respectful blues, browns, blacks, and grays to peaceful pastels in purples, pinks, and blues—makes each selection unique.  Two major classifications of Murray Funeral's steel casket product line are 18-gauge steel and 20-gauge steel. 

A natural, environmentally sound choice for caskets, Hardwood is strong, beautiful and shock-resistant. When families choose a hardwood casket, they are leaving a legacy for the next generation because wood is a renewable resource. Our Hardwood burial caskets are manufactured with the care and detailing of fine furniture.  Murray Funeral offers a complete line of hardwood caskets from inexpensive veneers to high-end mahoganies.  

From military insignias to hobbies, Expressions of Life caskets give families the opportunity to customize a casket to their loved one's unique personality and interests.  The eye-catching appeal of these handcrafted hardwood, veneer and metal caskets is enhanced by the artistic detail in each hand painted corner. Casket selections include seven hardwood models. 

Grave Markers can be personalized with the name(s) of the deceased, dates and an inscription. Markers can be plain or adorned with a border and/or emblems. Your family can choose any or all of those options to create a memorial that reflects the life of your loved one.
