3.    EARNINGS PER SHARE

Earnings per share data for all periods presented has been computed pursuant to
SFAS No. 128, "Earnings Per Share" which requires a presentation of basic
earnings per share (basic EPS) and diluted earnings per share (diluted EPS).
Basic EPS excludes dilution and is determined by dividing income available to
common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding
during the period. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur
if securities and other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or
converted into common stock. At March 31, 2001 the Company had options
outstanding for the purchase of an aggregate of 1,202,608 shares of common stock
of which all but 260,223 are antidilutive and excluded from shares used in
computing diluted EPS.

A reconciliation of weighted-average shares outstanding to shares used in
computing diluted EPS is as follows:

4.  SEGMENT INFORMATION

SFAS No. 131, "Disclosure About Segments of an Enterprise and Related
Information", requires certain financial and supplementary information to be
discussed on an annual and interim basis for each reportable segment of an
enterprise. In accordance with SFAS No. 131, the Company identified its
reporting segments based on its internal reporting of strategic business units.
The products within each segment require substantially different manufacturing
processes, are marketed to different customer bases and have different economic
characteristics.

The Company's Casket Segment includes the manufacturing and distribution
operations of a wide variety of metal, wood and other caskets, caskets
components and metal burial vaults. The Company's Commemorative Products Segment
produces and sells products, primarily cast bronze, which are used to
commemorate people, places and events. The All Other Segment includes the
Company's fleet operations, architectural services, merchandising products and
services, and corporate expenses. Product transfers between industry segments
are not material. The Company evaluates segment performance based upon operating
income.

5.  DEBT AND LIQUIDITY

The Company was not in compliance with specified debt covenants at various times
during 2000 and 2001. In January 2001, the Company reached agreements whereby
its lenders provided specified forbearance through June 30, 2001. Under the
terms of these agreements, the Company has agreed to a revised amortization
schedule with respect to repayment of the bank term loan and Senior Notes.
Further, the Company has agreed to make specified prepayments of the Senior
Notes as well as the bank term loan and revolving credit facility ("Bank
Facilities") from the proceeds of planned asset sales. These forbearance
agreements expire on June 30, 2001. The terms of the Bank Facilities provide for
an interest rate to be based upon the prime rate. The Senior Notes and Bank
Facilities are secured by substantially all of the Company's assets, including
the stock of all the Company's subsidiaries. The Senior Notes and Bank
Facilities, as modified by the terms of the forbearance agreements, do not
permit the payment of cash dividends, limit the Company's capital expenditures
and are guaranteed by the Company's subsidiaries. The Bank and the holder of the
Senior Notes have entered into an intercreditor agreement whereby both sets of
creditors have a security interest in substantially all of the Company's assets.
Since October 31, 2000, the Company has not been permitted to make additional
borrowings under the revolving credit facility.

During the first quarter of 2001, the Company received proceeds of $11.8 million
relating to the sale of Company-owned distribution operations and has reduced
outstanding debt by $14.1 million. The Company has, and continues to, pursue
multiple options relevant to securing the capital required to continue
operations beyond the expiration of the present forbearance agreements. These
options include refinancing with new or existing lenders, the sale of additional
assets, and potential business combination transactions.

The unresolved status of the debt refinancing and potential asset sales to
satisfy the Company's debt obligations raises substantial doubt as to the
Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Management believes that this
doubt is significantly reduced by the Company's actions and alternatives in
obtaining refinancing and selling assets to satisfy these obligations. The
consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the
recoverability and classification of asset carrying amounts or the amount and
classification of liabilities that might result should the Company be unable to
continue as a going concern.

6.  SUBSEQUENT EVENT

Since March 31, 2001, the Company completed additional sales of distribution
operations, and signed definitive agreements to sell assets related to its
metal burial vault business and real estate. These additional asset sales are
expected to yield net proceeds of $12 million. The Company does not expect to
incur any losses on the sale of these assets.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND
        FINANCIAL CONDITION

GENERAL

The Company is the second largest casket manufacturer in the United States
and produces a wide variety of caskets, casket components and burial vaults.
The Company also manufactures commemorative products. The Company's finished
caskets are marketed through a network of Company and privately owned
distributors, which serve domestic funeral homes, as well as certain foreign
markets. The Company is currently in the process of selling its Company owned
distribution centers. Burial vaults are sold directly to funeral home and
cemetery operators as well as to privately owned distributors. The Company's
commemorative memorial products are sold directly to cemetery operators,
monument dealers and funeral homes, and its architectural signage products
are sold primarily to sign and trophy dealers.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2001 COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2000

First quarter 2001 sales were $53.4 million compared to $54.8 million for the
same period in 2000. Casket Segment sales were $39.7 million compared to $41.3
million in 2000, a decrease of $1.6 million. Finished casket unit volumes
decreased 5.0%, compared to an estimated 5.7% decrease in deaths, from the same
period last year. The first quarter 2001 sale of a majority of the Company-owned
distribution centers to independently owned distributors of the Company's
products also reduced sales dollars per unit by the difference between
distributor-level pricing to funeral homes and plant-level pricing to
distributors for the units affected by this channel shift. These effects were
partially offset by favorable net price realization. Commemorative Products
Segment sales were $11.1 million in the first quarter of 2001 compared to $10.8
million in 2000. Sales from the All Other Segment, primarily consisting of York
Merchandising Systems(TM), were materially unchanged from the first quarter of
2000.

First quarter 2001 gross profit was $16.8 million compared to $16.2 million in
2000, increasing as a percentage of sales to 31.4% from 29.7% in 2000. Casket
Segment gross profit decreased approximately $0.8 million to $12.4 million,
primarily due to the lower finished casket volume and the sale of Company-owned
distribution centers, as described above. These effects were partially offset by
manufacturing cost reductions and favorable net price realization. Commemorative
Products Segment gross profit increased $1.1 million to $4.2 million primarily
due to the elimination of inefficiencies resulting from the Company's foundry
consolidation efforts. The All Other Segment gross profit increased $0.2 million
primarily due to cost and productivity improvements.

Other operating expenses for the first quarter of 2001 were $10.2 million
compared to $11.4 million in 2000. Casket Segment operating expenses decreased
$1.3 million primarily due to the reduction of selling and distribution expenses
resulting from the sale of Company-owned distribution centers. Commemorative
Products and All Other segment operating expenses were materially unchanged from
the prior year period.

Net interest expense increased slightly from 2000, reflecting higher interest
rates and an increase in deferred finance fee amortization, offset to some
degree by lower debt levels in 2001. Interest paid during both the first quarter
of 2001 and 2000 was $1.6 million and $1.2 million, respectively.

The Company's effective income tax rate decreased to 42.2% from 43.5% in 2000,
reflecting the higher income levels and decrease of non-deductible expenses,
primarily goodwill amortization, due to the write-off of non-deductible goodwill
included in the Company's fourth quarter 2000 restructuring charge. Cash paid
for income taxes during the first quarter of 2000 was $1.0 million. In the first
quarter of 2001, no cash was paid for income taxes.

In the first quarter of 2001, the Company recorded net income of $2.6 million,
compared to net income of $1.7 million in 2000. Both basic and diluted earnings
per share were $.30 in 2001 compared to $.19 in 2000.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Cash and cash equivalents were $7.8 million at March 31, 2001, representing an
increase of $3.3 million from December 31, 2000. During the first quarter of
2001, cash flows from operations totaled approximately $5.9


                                       8
<PAGE>
million, cash used in investing activities totaled approximately $11.5 million
and cash used in financing activities totaled approximately $14.1 million.

Capital expenditures were $0.2 million and $1.2 million in the first quarter of
2001 and 2000, respectively. The Company has budgeted capital expenditures for
2001 of approximately $5.0 million. Major 2001 expenditures include maintenance
and replacement projects which extend the life of the assets, with no
significant individual projects currently planned.

Long-term debt, including current maturities, at March 31, 2001, totaled $51.2
million, which primarily consisted of $10.1 million of senior notes (the "Senior
Notes"), $20.8 million outstanding on the Company's bank term loan, $14.9
million outstanding on the Company's revolving credit facility, subordinated
promissory notes totaling $3.6 million issued in conjunction with an acquisition
and capital lease obligations totaling $1.3 million. The Company was not in
compliance with specified debt covenants at various times during 2000 and 2001.
In January 2001, the Company reached agreements whereby its lenders provided
specified forbearance through June 30, 2001. The Bank and the holder of the
Senior Notes have entered into an intercreditor agreement whereby both creditors
have a security interest in substantially all of the Company's assets. Since
October 31, 2000, the Company has not been permitted to make additional
borrowings under the revolving credit facility.

During the first quarter of 2001, the Company received $11.8 million of proceeds
relating to the sale of Company-owned distribution operations and has reduced
outstanding debt by $14.1 million.

The Company has, and continues to, pursue multiple options relevant to
securing the capital required to continue operations beyond the expiration of
the present forbearance agreements. These options include refinancing with
new or existing lenders, the sale of additional assets, and potential
business combination transactions. Since March 31, 2001, the Company
completed additional sales of distribution operations, and signed definitive
agreements to sell assets related to its metal burial vault business and real
estate. These additional asset sales are expected to yield net proceeds of
$12 million. There are no anticipated losses on the sale of these assets.

The unresolved status of the debt refinancing and potential asset sales to
satisfy the Company's debt obligations raises substantial doubt as to the
Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Management believes that this
doubt is significantly reduced by the Company's actions and alternatives in
obtaining refinancing and selling assets to satisfy these obligations. The
consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the
recoverability and classification of asset carrying amounts or the amount and
classification of liabilities that might result should the Company be unable to
continue as a going concern.

INFLATION

Inflation has not had a material net impact on the Company over the past three
years nor is it anticipated to have a material impact for the foreseeable
future.

SELECTED QUARTERLY OPERATING RESULTS AND SEASONALITY

Historically, the Company's operations have experienced seasonal variations.
Generally, the Company's net sales of caskets are highest in the first quarter
and lowest in the third quarter of each year. These fluctuations are due in part
to the seasonal variance in the death rate, with a greater number of deaths
generally occurring in cold weather months, and the timing of the Company's
annual manufacturing facility vacation shutdowns, which occur primarily in the
third quarter. The Company's memorialization sales seasonally lag the Company's
casket business, and are highest in the second quarter, coinciding with the
Memorial Day holiday, and lowest in the first quarter. In addition, casket and
memorialization products operating results can vary between quarters of the same
or different years due to, among other things, fluctuations in the number of
deaths, changes in product mix, and the timing of annual price increases
relative to changes in costs. As a result, the Company experiences variability
in its operating results on a quarterly basis, which may make quarterly
year-to-year comparisons less meaningful.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

 This Form 10-Q includes forward-looking statements within the meaning of the
Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such statements are based upon
management's current expectations and assumptions. Important factors that could
cause actual results to differ materially from those in forward-looking
statements included herein include, among others, customer demands and the
Company's reaction to such demands, changes in mortality and/or cremation rates,
further consolidation in the funeral service industry, and fluctuations in the
prices of raw materials and other manufacturing costs and the availability of
debt and/or equity financing or refinancing options.

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

In the normal course of business, the Company is exposed to market risk,
primarily from changes in interest rates. The Company continually monitors
exposure to market risk and develops appropriate strategies to manage this risk.
The Company is not exposed to any other significant market risks, including
commodity price risk, foreign currency exchange risk or interest rate risks from
the use of derivative financial instruments. Management does not use significant
derivative financial instruments for trading or to speculate on changes in
interest rates or commodity prices.
