Spring has officially sprung — and so has our clocks! ⏰ If you’re feeling a little extra sleepy today, don’t forget that Daylight Saving Time began last night. We hope the extra evening sunshine brings a little brightness to your day.

Did you know there’s actually a difference between a casket and a coffin?

A casket is rectangular with a lid, while a coffin has six sides—wider at the shoulders and narrower at the feet. Coffins are often what people picture in old movies or historical settings, but caskets are much more commonly used in the United States and Canada.

Funeral traditions have evolved over time, and it’s interesting to see how design and terminology have changed along the way!

On this day, we remember the courage, sacrifice, and determination of those who fought for the freedom that shaped our great state 190 years ago. Their legacy lives on in the communities we serve, the families we honor, and the deep pride we share.

As we reflect on our history, may we also remember the importance of preserving stories, honoring lives, and cherishing the generations who came before us.
