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
“So kind and patient. Worked with us to get all the options and information we needed. It seems to be a family business, which I like. I called another place first and the phone was answered by and automated system with several options to choose from. I hung up and when I called this place, a lovely woman answered, which I really appreciated. They also offered the option of texting with them, which was very convenient for quick communication. I highly recommend this funeral home as your best choice to help you with your arrangements for your loved one.”
