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
“The James H Cole family know how to serve families. The staff and leadership are personable as they reassure you that they will cover you in times when you can’t think right. They will make sure you have what you need. In my case, my loved one had finalized their own final arrangements years ago and JHC provided everything that was initially planned. However, in some families, we have special cousins who are not on their game. The mortuary cosmetologist did not provide the finish look that we had anticipated for our loved one. My suggestion is that you get a person who is in tune with what’s needed for a female to bring out their natural beauty. Look at the pictures that were provided; Use the accessories that were provided; And stay in the building for the private viewing so that corrections can be made before the public see them. This is the only reason I gave you four stars Thank you”

“My Brother passed away at Detroit Receiving hospital unexpectedly as family members were in route from Houston Texas. We were at a loss on how to proceed. A Detroit relative recommended James H Cole Funeral Home. We are extremely pleased we chose them. We worked directly with owner/manager, Miss Karla Cole. She is a compassionate person and the quality of her service was exceptional! She helped us overcome family disputes and difficulties in a calm and empathetic manner. Her explanation of funeral choices and cost were straightforward. We never felt pressured or steered towards options outside of our budget. Promises made were promises kept. I would highly recommend James H Cole for your funeral needs.”
