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 were very pleased with the dedication and compassion exhibited by all at Sunset. They made every attempt to meet our needs and requests. I truly felt so comfortable during the whole process. Thank you to Tammy and Scott for everything! And to the others who were also involved!”
— Timothy Miller
“Mom passed just short of a year after dad. Sunset was there for us both times. You will not find a more compassionate group of people to help you during your time of grief. Scott Reed took us by the hand and led us each step of the way. They were in constant contact to make sure everything was done to our specifications and that we were completely satisfied with all of the funeral arrangements. Scott and his team treated our parents with the upmost respect and tenderness. Something that is not often mentioned but that we were so impressed with was how peaceful and natural our parents looked. You won't go wrong using Sunset for your loved ones.”
— Kim Chiantaretto
“As parents, we very much appreciate Drew and Brad and their care during this most difficult part of our journey. Our son’s service was the most beautiful I’ve ever been a part of and Brad Tucker is due the recognition of being so personable and professional.”
