ABSTRACT:
A combination burial vault and casket and funeral and burial method or system are provided. The burial vault comprises a base which includes a generally rectangular-shaped upright interiorly decorated inner wall structure having a closed bottom and an open top. A "surround" or false casket includes a generally rectangular-shaped box-like frame having handle members attached thereto, and having an open top and an open bottom and an interiorly decorated hinged top or closure member. In use the "surround" or false casket is arranged over and encloses the inner upright wall structure and bottom wall or supporting platform of the base and is releasably latched thereto at the funeral home with the remains of the deceased arranged in the casket assembly provided by the inner upright wall structure and its bottom wall or supporting platform and the "surround" or false casket enclosing the same. After the funeral service at the funeral home the "surround" or false cakset is unlatched from the inner upright wall structure and its bottom wall or supporting platform and is retained at the funeral home for reuse. The inner upright wall structure is then hermetically sealed and a dome-shaped cover member is arranged over and hermetically sealed and mechanically fastened to the inner upright wall structure and the bottom wall or supporting platform of the base of the vault at the funeral home. The thus assembled and hermetically sealed vault, with the remains of the deceased therein, is then transported from the funeral home to the cemetery for a graveside or other cemetery service, and for interment in the grave opening.
