My initial reason for becoming involved in the funeral service was the hearses. I have always loved these vehicles from the horse-drawn through to the modern coaches of today. The company currently owns a 1986 Cadillac S&S Victoria, a 1947 Rolls Royce Silver Wraith hearse, a 1926 Chrysler Mahogany Box Hearse, and a horse-drawn coach that I constructed, styled after a 1890's style coach. April 1997, I purchased a 1972 Cadillac-Superior Combination Coach as a restoration project (shown below at a car show) which has recently been sold as well as a 1985 Buick S&S Victoria.  Formerly, I owned a 1972 Cadillac Miller-Meteor electric three-way coach and a 1977 Cadillac Superior Landau Rear loader.
