Smith Family Funeral Home

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.

“My father in law passed away at Fernley Assisted Living. I called Smiths because I read the reviews and they were wonderful! Smiths went to Fernley to pick him up and they were so helpful and so kind! We had him cremated and they called and had everything ready! I highly recommend Smiths!”

“Awesome staff! They handled my father as if he was apart of their own family. They were patient and showed great empathy as they spoke to us. We had a 6 hour drive from Las Vegas so they offered to charge our phones for us. I’m not much for funeral homes but they made us feel comfortable and most importantly they listened to our wants! I couldn’t have found greater people to tend to my father! Thank you guys so much!”
