Nature's own hardwoods have literally served man from cradle to grave for thousands of years. It is often said that the foundation of funeral service is sentiment. Each of us has sentimental feelings associated with wood. We live with wood,we choose it for our furniture and to decorate our homes. Wood's warmth is pleasing and comforting. Each of us has his own "favorite" specie of wood--usually reflected by the type of furniture that we select for our homes. Some prefer the bold, "outdoors" look of Oak,some favor the more refined lines of Mahogany or Cherry,still others are drawn to the "colonial" look of Northern Pine, New England Maple, Southern Pecan or Tennessee Cedar.
Environmentalists are pleased to learn that the woods that we utilize come from managed forests. Wood is one of America's very few renewable natural resources. About 70% of the lumber reserves in the US today existed when Columbus landed over 500 years ago!
