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.

“I would absolutely recommend Harris Funeral Home . Very professional, caring, helpful, and understanding of all your needs in your time of sorrow for the loss of your loved one. So very thankful that I picked Harris Funeral Home I have no regrets as to how my Fathers arrangements were handled! Would highly recommend without a doubt.”

“We used their pet service recently when our beloved dog passed unexpectedly on a Sunday night. The after hours answering service was kind and efficient, and a staff member contacted me quickly to make arrangements. They came out at 930pm and treated her with the same care as a family member who had passed. She was returned with the same care in a simple white urn, with a lock of her fur, ink paw prints, and a clay impression of her paw. Bob made sure everything turned out beautifully. They have a nice selection of pet urns available as well [we planned a custom urn separately].”

“In December, our family said goodbye to our beloved twelve year old English bulldog, Mackie. While overwhelmed with grief and uneducated about the process of caring for a deceased pet, a family friend recommended Harris pet cremation services. From the moment a gentle voice answered my call that day, the kindness and care gifted to us by Harris will not soon be forgotten. Their tender concern and thoughtfulness towards our loss brought comfort all throughout our grieving process. Above and beyond, they even gifted us a pressed clay paw print and fur keepsakes. I am sharing this review in hopes that others can experience this same kindness during their own seasons of grieving by choosing Harris.”
