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
“Paradise Memorial offered outstanding services. Professional, caring and compassionate. Those we came in contact with at the facility and at the homegoing service were kind, dedicated and focused on our needs. Things went so smoothly. Our representative, Whitley, was exceptional and went above and beyond in working with us. The thoughtfulness and courtesy reach-out on our wellbeing, 'after', all was over and done were so well appreciated. Our family is grateful to the Paradise Memorial team.”

“I was very pleased with the services my loved one and family received at Paradise Memorial Funeral Services. From the moment my loved one was placed in their care, the staff was thorough and professional while also being deeply respectful and compassionate during a very difficult time. I was greeted with kindness and empathy, and the staff, Shana in particular, was exceptionally professional and caring. She reassured me that my loved one was in good hands, and that proved to be absolutely true.”
