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.

“They took so much of the stress out of the situation. My wife died suddenly and I selected Dukes Harley because they were close by, but knowing what I know now, I would have selected them no matter where they were located. They knew the questions to ask, but more importantly HOW to ask. Their experience made the process easy for me. I know I made the right choice.”
— Matt Belyus
“Our family was provided with guidance and excellent service by Mark Hutto and all the staff. They were very compassionate and supported us through this difficult time in our life. We are fortunate to have a funeral home of this quality in our community. I would recommend them to anyone.”
— Barry Sanford
“We recently met with Jay Hutto and staff with funeral arrangements for a loved one. We received a phone call at 10:30 PM on a Saturday night not 45 minutes after our loved one passed. We met with Jay on a Sunday and he was amazing in helping with options and they handled everything. To say that we were impressed with his professionalism and kind spirit is an understatement. During the week the staff received and returned calls to confirm deliveries from relatives out of state. The facility is beautiful and my wife and I could not have asked for better service.”
— Roy Chaney
We file the life insurance claim and recover unclaimed property — the payout can help cover costs like these. $0 upfront.
