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.

“The behavior currently being displayed is completely unacceptable. Removing markers with no notice to family this close to Christmas is appalling and when information is requested family members are meant with hostility and zero compassion. The idea of going to honor and spend time with your loved ones for the holidays and you cannot even tell where they were laid to rest is beyond devastating. Deleting reviews from loved ones will neither erase your actions nor stop us from leaving more. Take accountability.”

“The Gary L. Kaufman Funeral Home at Meadowridge made the challenging experience with the death of my mother much easier. Candace and the entire staff were fantastic with the entire process. We had a Celebration of Life at the Funeral Home which included catering. I could not be more pleased with the entire process. Both my parents are there and I was pleased with everything. It's never an easy time with the death of loved ones, the staff made it as best as possible. Candace was wonderful and assisted us through everything. I appreciate everyone's professionalism.”

“On January 10, 2026, my husband and I had the pleasure of working with Tammy Davis to complete our pre‑arrangements for his mother, himself, and me. Tammy was exceptionally professional and attentive to our needs throughout the entire process. She ensured that we understood every detail from beginning to end, which gave us great peace of mind. Making these arrangements now has lifted a tremendous weight off our shoulders, knowing that when the time comes, there will be less stress for our family. As we viewed our final resting place, we were impressed by how well‑kept the cemetery is. The overall atmosphere was warm, comforting, and respectful. If you are considering pre‑arranging your end‑of‑life plans, Tammy Davis is absolutely the person who can guide you with care and clarity. We were very satisfied with the services provided and deeply appreciate the support we received. Thank you Tammy Davis”
