Questions to Ask When You Call
You're not expected to know this. These questions help you compare and avoid surprises.
“Can I see your General Price List?”
Federal law (FTC Funeral Rule) requires them to give you itemized pricing. You have every right to ask.
“Do you accept insurance assignment?”
This means they bill the insurance company directly. You don't pay thousands upfront and wait to be reimbursed.
“What's included vs. what's extra?”
Packages may not include everything. Ask about the casket, embalming, transportation, facility fees, and death certificate copies.
Know Your Rights
The FTC Funeral Rule protects you. Every funeral home must provide an itemized General Price List if you ask — in person or over the phone. You are never required to buy a package and can choose services individually. You also have the right to use a casket purchased elsewhere.

What Families Say
“You deserve NO stars but that’s the only choice. Do not and I repeat do not use this place. My sister had a bad experience with them. No respect for a grieving widow. Started off in a email spelling her husband’s middle name wrong, when she told them that was incorrect, in a group email they put that the spouse gave the wrong information. I can assure you after 30 years of marriage she is very aware on how to spell his name. After a few weeks she called to get an update on when his ashes would be ready, it was crickets. No one knew anything and people were avoiding her. The other one star reviews are correct. Trust me, use someone else. I know things happen but own up to your mistakes and communicate with loved ones in a sensitive and respectful manner. DO BETTER!”
