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.

“My experience with shane d. and the preacher john m. was very very nice. Shane was nice and proffessional and understanding. He is good at funerals..above and beyond everything he help long distance!! I was in new mexico and he guided me thru everything there. The preacher, john m., was probly the best leader of the services ive ever witnessed. Super great. Smart and happy and can read the room. After my brother then my husband and then my dad.....i was just spent...these 2 men basically said...dont worry brenda, we got you....what a relief!! Highly recommended”

“Even though plans were made several years in advance, when the moment came, we found that we wanted to make dramatic changes. Shane at Reardon was responsive to our every need. Starting right from our hour of need with transport from Orange County within a couple hours. Then he accommodated 2 services, both cultural and conventional. The embalming service was exceptional. The arrangements from their florist were beautiful. The venue was perfect and the staff took great care guiding my mom throughout our quick plans. So proud to have such a fine business in Simi Valley!”
