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
“I Highly recommend Luis and wright funeral home! Very pleasant people to work with. Mr. Lewis and Ms. Marie were extremely supportive, kind, and caring with the process of burying my family member. Very professional and would highly recommend.”
— Ameara Celeste
“On August 20, my brother, Prentice died in a local hospital and was entrusted to Lewis and Wright Funeral Directors where he had made previous arrangements for his funeral. It was a blessing to have the professional and emotional support of the funeral home staff to be fully engaged in following his planned directions and executed them with precision. They made all the difference in experiencing calmness over chaos during the storm from the planning stage to leaving the cemetery.”

“I would not recommend them to anyone. We had a traumatic experience at the burial site of our loved one as the casket didn’t fit into the vault, both of which were ordered through Lewis & Wright as part of their funeral services. Each time they attempted to lower it, the top of the casket would begin to lift more and more. This became very overwhelming and eventually it was suggested we should go and they would send videos to ensure the casket got into the vault and then grave. A trusted family friend remained at the gravesite to ensure this happened. We never received a follow up call or apology or explanation from the funeral home. When we called the owner to understand what happened and explain how traumatizing the experience was. He never apologized. It wasn’t until we called the various other parties involved in the burial that we found out the funeral home put our loved one in an oversized casket (despite them not being oversized) but purchased a regular sized vault the night before the funeral. Once they learned we knew this information and were upset, one of the funeral directors called to apologize and acknowledge he knew at the gravesite that the casket may not fit and had both measured onsite. Given their knowledge we should have received an apology much earlier in the process. The loss of a loved one is never easy. I suggest using a funeral home that actually has care and compassion. You won’t find this at Lewis and Wright.”
