Clergy Casket

Any Trappist Casket is suitable for use by clergy. All of our caskets have 2-piece lids that can be removed for full-couch viewing.

As an option, the name of the priest or deacon and dates of birth, ordination, and death can be engraved on a removable keepsake plaque. This plaque can be displayed on the inside of the upper lid of the #1 Premium Rectangular Casket for viewing during the wake service. With all other casket styles, the plaque can be placed on an easel for display.

Optional full-couch upholstery for the #1 Premium Rectangular Casket is available for an additional charge.

A removable Deacon Cross can be engraved on the lid, in place of the traditional keepsake cross.

* Please note – We do not offer a one-piece lid with the clergy casket.

Why your purchase is special

Every human being is a treasure and each casket and urn is built to reflect the treasure it holds. Every casket, urn and cross is blessed by a monk. (our Prayers)

The name of each person buried in one of our caskets or urns is inscribed in our Memorial Book placed in the chapel at Trappist Caskets.
As a living memorial, a tree seedling is planted in the monastic forest on the Abbey grounds as our way to honor your loved one and to give back to the earth. This planting is consecrated with a special blessing.
A Mass is celebrated in memory of those who use one of our blessed vessels for their final repose.
