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
“I can't speak highly enough about this funeral home. I originally chose them based on location and the fact that they had previously arranged my grandfather's funeral and I'd liked the space they provided for viewings. It's small in comparison to its sister location in Stamford, but still a beautiful and well kept space. It's conveniently located next to public transportation (the Greenwich stop on Metro North Railroad), so attendees from out of town can easily get there without a car. I definitely made the right choice with this funeral home. Hanah Kosaka was very kind, helpful, and understanding. She walked me through the whole process from beginning to end. She was easy to talk to and get in contact with. She seemed to understand what I needed from the get go, and helpfully provided "deadlines" for the decisions that needed to be made, so I knew how and when to handle things. I greatly appreciated this from her. Everyone I spoke to or interacted with during this painful process was helpful and kind, from the administrators to the staff on the days of service. Kyle Duke, who facilitated things in the final days of planning and for the service itself, was equally helpful and kind, deferring some of the burden to family members so I could grieve with my father. The staff here took so much of the burden and pressure off of me during what was a really difficult time in my life. I felt like I could ask questions and feel things without judgment. I also used their services to create a burial contract for my father. I'm very grateful to Hanah, Kyle Duke, and everyone else for their help and their caring. I highly recommend both the Stamford and Greenwich locations of this funeral home to anyone who finds themself in need of their services.”
