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.

“Matt Markieswicz and his staff did a great job. They were very accommodating with a high focus on the details. We couldn’t hope for a better place to honor our Dad. I would highly recommend Markiewicz Funeral Home. John Lapp”
— John L
“My father-in-law passed away. Durning such a horrible time, this place did make the arrangements a lot easier on you. We delt with Robert. What a wonderful person. During the wake, we ending up staying almost 2 hours after closing. He never once implied or mentioned anything (about when we'd be leaving) even though I know his wife was calling expecting him to be home. Robert just wanted us to take our time. Afterwards, he told my family about the healing steps for grieving. He also extened an ear if we wanted to talk. Everything was beyond my expectations. For such an awful time...this place did make it easier on you.”
