Dear Brothers of Melleray Abbey, Thank you for your kind response to our sudden need last week for a casket for our father. Yours in Christ.

My deepest gratitude to everyone who lives within the walls of your dear abbey. I am so thankful to have had the chance to spend some time there. The event was truly life affecting, I am glad to say I have brought you all home with me, especially Father Xavier, and have revisted those dear walls many times over the last few days in quiet contemplation. The website is also a nice way to return to serenity for a short moment in a busy day. My unending gratitude to you and a Loving God who helped me get there.

Dear Brothers, I fully enjoyed reading the contents of the website, especially the segment on Cistercian deatn and spirituality. Thank you!

You have a beautiful web presence. Our churchs rosary group often prays for monastics who are always praying for us beyond the abbey. Thank you.

I am glad I found this site!!! My husband has been talking about these caskets forever and now that I have found them I am going to order two of them for us. I just wish I had seen it sooner when we lost our son in July of 2003. We will be doing a pre-need planning very soon. Thank you for a beautiful site. I learned a lot about the Abbey. I hope to visit soon. God Bless each and every one of you. Diana

I care for my 94 year old mother-in-law who, God willing, will be with us for many years, but the inevitable must be planned for. I searched the internet for a casket, and found your site. The casket is quite secondary to what I have learned about the Monastary, and about the Rite of the funeral. Your site has helped renew an understanding as to the importance of the Rite. My good Irish Catholic mother-in-law is most appreciative of what you have brought to light. As for myself, I understand the intimate relationship between manual labor, natural woods and mans need to express his spiritualism through that endeavour. We will honor Grandma Kates final journey in a pine casket....

I would just like to say how pleased we were with the beautiful casket my Mom had ordered from you. She died 8/31 and was buried 9/4.So many commented on your craftmanship!

I just checked your new website and it is wonderful..easy to read, etc. I am sad at the news of Brother Guss passing. I saw him about 6 weeks ago when I was in for retreat. How I loved his humor (weird sometimes!) and just seeing him always brought a smile to my face. Now he can share more fully in the bliss that he radiated. Ive got his poems, and I wont forget him.
