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.
“Do you offer payment plans?”
Many funeral homes allow you to spread the cost over time. Ask about down payments, terms, and financing options.
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
“King Funeral Home is full of compassionate, caring, and hardworking people. There are not enough words to describe how great Carey and the other staff members are. I never felt "sold" to and can tell they really care about the families they help. From my first phone call, to THE phone call, the final meeting, and everything in between, they were wonderful - THANK YOU!!!”
— Mallory Stephens
“The King family took care of my mother in 2020 and our family had a prior relationship with Tommy and his dad for as long as I could remember. When my dad passed away on Oct 2 of this year we were a little uneasy since we had dealt with directly with Tommy in the past. I have to say that Carey and his entire staff went above and beyond. I don’t think they could have been anymore accommodating, friendly and attentive to our entire family and our needs. The quality of care and service has not changed at all, everything is as great as ever!”
— Michael Cooper
“Having to plan a loved one’s funeral is one of the worst things one has to do in life. Tommy King made it a hell of a lot easier. My phone call was answered immediately and arrangements for my deceased loved one were done and finalized on the same day. This is a long time local family owned and operated funeral home. It is clean, cozy, and comforting; I felt as if I was walking into a family members house. Tommy King is professional, honest, compassionate, understanding, and a man of good moral compass. We appreciate them more than they could ever imagine.”
