FOR TESTIMONIAL SITE

I recently received my PORTA-MORGUE. I think this will be the perfect solution
for the onsite refrigeration needs at my funeral home. This unit will prove to be of
great value as we face increasing requests for cremation, and on any occasion
when there are delays in contacting the next-of-kin, or for medical examiner/coroner
cases. This is a necessary piece of equipment for the rural funeral home.

Dear Mr. Whitmer:

A few weeks ago you wrote me requesting our evaluation of the advantages and
disadvantages of the porta-morgue unit we use at the Anatomical Education Program.

We have been well pleased with the performance of the unit. An angle from the door to
the floor of the unit could make removing the bodies easier, however, you must also
have a deep enough area to collect any moisture which may accumulate within the unit.

Dear Bob,

It was good to hear from you and I apologize for the delay in returning your letter.
Things are going as usual at VU and I hope that you will get the opportunity to come
to campus and see our new facility.
Your letter asked about the advantages and disadvantages of using the Porta-Morgue.
The Unit is quite useful if it becomes necessary to move the unit to a temporary facility
for refrigeration. Possibly a narrower unit would allow it to be moved within a building
without being disassembled.
Other than these concerns we have found the Porta-Morgue to be reliable refrigeration
unit that could be a benefit to any funeral home.
If you have any questions please feel free to call me.

Dear Robert & Family:

It was very much of a surprise to receive your letter in early March. We
had begun to think that the Whitmers had vanished from the face of the earth
and that we were in possession of a dinosaur. Then came the letter. it looks
like you have undergone some corporate changes, but we are glad you are still around.

As to our Porta-Morgue - As chance would have it, when we received your letter, the
cooler had been in continuous operation for a month and was to run constantly for
another two and a half weeks after that; nearly seven weeks without interuption.
For us, that was a record. To say that it has changed the way we do business would not
be exaggerated statement.

It has performed flawlessly since we go it. It sits on a casket utility truck in our casket
stock room. We had a dedicated outlet installed so nothing else would run on that circuit,
which has been fine. Not too many people know it is there, but those who do cannot help
to be impressed. It has had a very positive effect on our relationship with our assistant
medical examiner. That is worth the price of admission, don't you think.

As it sits, it is exactly even with our Ferno One Man stretcher, so that transfer for
stretcher to cooler is very smooth. Coming out was another matter. In its original form, 
it was hard to slide the body out as easily as it went in. So I had my friendly cabinet
maker design a platform. So far, so good!

I can't help but think that, in the years since ours was built, you have found a solution to
to the above described problem. Aside from sometimes wishing we had two, I cannot
think of another way to improve the Porta-Morgue.

With Kindest Regards,
