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.

What Families Say
“We were treated with kindness, caring and respect of our grief at the loss of my husband. He died at home under hospice care. When they arrived to transport his body to the funeral home, they were very polite and gave us time for a final goodbye and covered him with a flag respecting his military service. At the funeral home again it was a polite, caring atmosphere and a follow up message a few weeks after ther service. Thank you to all of them.”
— Sheri Spradley
“Jennings & Ayers are some of the most kindest people ever. They made our hardest times much easier and less stressful. Not only were they there for us during our mom's death, but 2 months later they are still checking on us. I consider everyone @ Jennings & Ayers my friend. I cannot recommend a place or the people any higher. Thank you Jennings & Ayers for the little bit of peace you gave us during such difficult days. I will forever be grateful. ”

“Jennings and Ayers Funeral Home was very helpful and caring thru the entire process from the initial casket selection done during pre-planning, which I would highly recommend, to the picking up of my mom at home where she passed away thru the funeral itself and even afterward.
