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
“Everett and his team at Whitfield funeral home have provided us with excellent funeral services! They took great care with my parents and brother! They were very personal and kind in their communications with us. Everything they did was heartfelt. They even followed up with us a couple of times in the weeks after to see if we needed anything. They offered us contacts for grief counseling. They are there for you the whole time.”
— Jonathan Echols
“Everrit Huffman is the best. He helped me with my late husband’s funeral service. He was so good, knowledgeable, and above all else so very compassionate. Everything went flawlessly. He helped my whole family through such a difficult time. He was patient and let me make the payment when I got the life insurance to cover the cost. He put together such a professional video, and notification. He let me cry on his shoulder and helped me all along the way. I would never go anywhere else for funeral service but at Whitfields and having Everitt there I know it is going to be the best experience of a sad situation.”
— Ann Hulsey
“Everett has such a humbleness with people that only a true caring person can have. He makes a hard situation smoother and easier than expected.

Thank you Everett for everything you have done for my whole family in our trying times. Pam Crow Shirley”
