A technician secures a casket at the Southern Memorial Park in Biloxi, Miss., Aug. 30, 2005 after Hurricane Katrina ripped open mausoleums, sucked caskets out of their tombs, and flattened the offices. Company officials are trying to find all the missing caskets that were displaced due to the hurricane, but many are either buried under the debris, floated out to sea or possibly floated out and sank in the waters just off shore.
