5. Trappist monks from Peosta, Iowa (near Dubuque) built

the casket - Sam Mulgrew is the general manager for the casket-building business.

"A victim of Saturday's shootings in Tucson, Ariz., will be buried in a casket made from red oak trees by monks in northeast Iowa.

Nine-year-old Christina Taylor Green, the youngest of six victims gunned down in the attack on Rep. Gabrielle Giffords, will be buried in a coffin built by Trappist Caskets of Peosta, Ia., near Dubuque.

The Roman Catholic monks of the New Melleray Abbey in northeast Iowa have become renowned for their handmade caskets over the past decade and routinely donate children's caskets."

6. Oh, yes...those left behind...

I cannot imagine losing a child of mine...what is sad that so many marriages dissolve if a child dies. You'd think that couples would be closer but for some reason it seems to cause disruption of their relationship leading to divorce. It's so sad...
