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
“My mother died relatively young three years ago. My grandmother died this week. In both cases my family used Jennings. They are personable, professional, respectful. You wouldn't for a second think that death is something routine for them. I'll always appreciate that. It means the world to me to know that the mortal remains of my beloved mother and grandmother were dealt with honor and dignity. These guys are the best in the business.”

“My sister recently passed away and Jennings handled the funeral. They could not have been anymore helpful. Adam was very sensitive to our situation and helped us find what was best for us. There was no pressure to do anything. Everyone else we worked with was really kind as well and took good care of us. They were especially kind to my elderly parents and very patient with them. I can’t recommend them highly enough. They made a difficult experience as painless as possible.”
