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
“Worked with them on replacing a 107 year old stone and they were wonderful. Highly recommend them with no hesitation.”
— NS Guy
“Good place to go for your loved ones headstone. Meg, who assisted my mom & I, was extremely helpful and handled all of our requests to add designs and even a picture to my dad's stone. Reasonable pricing and the work turned out great. Mom was very satisfied.”
— John Konsavage
“This company is wonderful. I contacted Frank in regards to resetting a families obelisk that was 125 yrs old and had fallen over. Frank said he would take a drive out to the cemetery and see what work needed to be done. Frank gave me two different quotes based on two choices I had in regards to the repair. I chose the higher one as I wanted to make sure the headstone would be standing for another 125 yrs. The footer was replaced and the obelisk reset. The work done was professional as were the phone conversations to discuss the work. After the work was completed I was sent large photos of the work, as I am 1500 miles away, and can not view it first hand. I highly recommend Frank on his work ethic and professionalism.”
