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.

“When my dad passed away, we were stepping into one of the most painful and vulnerable moments of our lives. Entrusting someone with his body and with the responsibility of honoring his life felt overwhelming, until we met Eric and his wonderful family at Life Celebration Center. From the very first conversation, they were gentle, compassionate, and so incredibly genuine. They did not rush us. They did not overwhelm us with information. Instead, they were fully present. They carefully shared what we needed to know, reading our faces and our emotions, and waiting until we were ready to ask for more. In a time when everything felt heavy and surreal, their patience and emotional awareness meant everything. The space itself is warm, comforting, and beautiful, but what truly made it special was Eric’s presence. You could feel how deeply he cared, not just about doing his job well, but about caring for our dad as a person. He handled my dad’s body with such dignity and respect. It was clear that this was not routine for him. It was something he approached with deep care and intention. That alone brought us so much peace. My sisters, my mother, and I all felt the same thing. We felt seen. We felt safe. We felt understood. We felt genuinely cared for. In the midst of grief, that kind of support is priceless. They created an environment where we could breathe, where we could grieve, and where we could trust that our dad was being treated with love and honor. There are no perfect words to thank people who show up for you in your darkest moments, but Eric and his family truly did. Life Celebration Center is more than a funeral home. It is a place of compassion, dignity, and heartfelt care. We will forever be grateful for the way they cared for our dad and for all of us.”
