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 our family lost my mother, Feeney provided everything we needed — and then some. From the very first call, Michele and her team demonstrated a rare combination of professionalism and genuine warmth that made a difficult time feel a little more manageable. What stood out most was how attentively they cared for my elderly father. They never rushed him, always made him feel heard, and showed a level of compassion that went well beyond what we expected from a funeral home. Every detail was handled with grace and sensitivity. The full range of services was seamlessly coordinated, but it never felt transactional. It felt personal. Michele's team clearly understood that they weren't just managing logistics — they were helping a family through one of the hardest moments of their lives. We are deeply grateful for the comfort and support Feeney provided. Our family recommends them without a single reservation — and we say that from the heart.”

“6/3/2023, "It was the best celebration of a cherished life that I had ever been to", as said to me by the family and friends gathered to honor my husband of 40 years. With the help of Dave Feeney and his compassionate and caring staff, we were able to personalize the memorial room with all of my husband's favorite things, serve his favorite foods in the café and display a video slide show of his life. Feeney Funeral Home exceeded our expectations in providing what we needed to celebrate a life that will never be forgotten!”

“Excellent staff that is attentive to every detail, and willing to go above and beyond the call of duty. Accommodating of all faith traditions. In helping a friend whose child passed away, I found that working with Feeney was the easiest and most reassuring part of the experience. Dave was willing to coordinate with multiple friends over text, hold meetings, travel to/from multiple locations, work with Village officials to accommodate a large gathering for both the wake as well as a memorial service on the front lawn. Really can't say enough good things.”
