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.

“The staff made the whole process very easy. I appreciate all the work they do. I truly appreciate Mickey for being patient with me and our family.”
— Eddis “iameddis”
“While processing loss is incredibly difficult with the speed in which certain things have to happen... Mickey at Chapel of the Roses truly made this part of the process easier. She was gentle, patient, and proactive in communicating. She met me where I was emotionally and helped more than she likely knows. I hope to not go through this again, but am grateful for a place to partner with.”
— Ryanne Howard
“The funeral director is so nice and empathetic. He was there when I needed him and did everything he could to make me feel like I was not alone in this whole new process. They made sure my husband had the care he needed. I would highly recommend Chapel of the roses for your loved one's care. The little things like accents and attention to detail were excellent in handling his ashes. The only complication I ran into was the staff's communication. When I showed up to the funeral home for my husband's cremation the staff didn't know we were going to be there. They were not ready for us. That was the only thing that caught my attention. Otherwise service was great!”
