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 in town for a visit with family and went to pay our respects to a loved one entombed there. The staff is wonderful and so kind. Only reason I gave it 3 stars is the mausoleum and the front sidewalk could use some repairs and updating. Otherwise a beautiful place with amazing staff.”
— Tammy Jarrett
“Our family has used Monte Vista multiple times in the last few years for burial services. We just had to plan another funeral and burial, and this time we used their funeral services in addition to the burial. I can't express enough gratitude for thr way our family was cared for during the process. So much compassion went in to making sure every detail was just as we envisioned it. Deaths are such a difficult time, it takes very special people to make you feel secure and at peace with the process following, these people have been a God-sent blessing to us multiple times now. Thank you Anthony and crew!”
— Bekah Hunt
“Anthony and the staff at Monte Vista handled the funeral arrangements for my in-laws recently. They were so very helpful with the planning process, the details, etc. I highly recommend them to anyone when the need arises. Anthony had worked with my in-laws and had helped them preplan their funeral arrangements. That preplanning was such a great help.”
— Ernest Stoltzfus
