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
“We had a really pleasant, sweet and efficient experience working with Susan Highberger at Mount Moriah. She helped us with the perfect spots and just the right amount of choices (not overwhelming)for choosing the marker. I also think that this cemetery is the most beautiful and well kept one that we saw when we were looking for the right place.”

“My father recently passed away. We miss him terribly. He fortunately preplanned his burial and chose Mount Moriah, Newcomer & Freeman Funeral Home & Mount Moriah Cemetery as his final resting place. The rest of the service was not preplanned and we were welcomed into a safe, kind, intelligent, efficient process by Matthias Roening. He and Mount Moriah deserve the highest of recommendations. Matthias intelligently and thoughtfully cared for my grieving family making an emotional, complicated matter manageable and celebratory. We felt heard and supported during the whole process. The officiant he recommended, Gary Simmons, did an excellent job of using our memories and love to express my incredible father’s life. I felt my dad was truly honored in an honest and real way that left us with more peace than I thought could be possible. On behalf of my family and all who loved and respected my father, thank you Matthias and Mt. Moriah.”

But our experiences in September 2024, and then again in November 2025 were made as simple as they could've been. Working with Mount Moriah, Newcomer & Freeman Funeral Home we were met with authentic compassion from all of the staff we encountered, as well as professional guidance as we needed to make decisions. Overall, it was such a relief to know our loved one's were well cared for and that our family and friends were able to be comforted by the services offered.”
