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 Kisselburg family takes great pride in their business and the community to whom they serve. We have been to their funeral home several times for friends and family and they have always been professional, compassionate and caring, ensuring everyone is comfortable in their most difficult times. My husband’s truck died in front of their business on the coldest day of the year, and Mark came out and helped him push the truck to the side of the road safely. He could have stayed inside but that isn’t who the Kisselburgs are.”
— Samantha Churak
“Mark and Craig were amazing to work with. Losing someone is hard but these two were kind and compassionate. They were patient with me, good listeners and offered suggestions in a supportive manor. Thank you for helping to make this transition a little smoother for us.”
— Christina Closson
“It appears someone is attacking this great business by plastering low reviews. They shoud be ashamed of themselves. These folks are surely showing what type of people they are. I hope they find a better way to grieve for their loss. The owner and all of his staff are professional, caring and they go above and beyond for their “clients.” I had to say goodbye to my Mother and they were the glue that held me together when I was falling apart. I thank the Lord everyday for them and their kindness.”
— Mike Stoner
