What is the memory tube?
The memory tube is a small glass tube 1/2 inch in diameter and about 3 inches long that screws into the end of the casket. The funeral home puts the person’s identity in there. The funeral home uses this to up-sell the customer. They say if there should be a flood and the casket comes up, we can identify the body without having to open the casket. Scary thought, so you pay the extra money. Anyway, ALL of our caskets come with the memory tube.
