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.

“everyone who works here is so kind, patient, empathetic, and thoughtful with what they do. you can tell that they really care about their job and about you and your family, and want to help during hard times as much as possible. there aren’t enough words to describe my gratitude for their kindness. on top of that, the cemetery is beautiful and has a peaceful energy to it. definitely recommend going to the waterfall if you get the chance.”

“Thank you so much Melanie and Anne Marie. You and your staff did an amazing job at arranging all of the affairs for both my mother in 2020 and my grandmother's funeral this weekend. We were blown away with the mountains you moved to make sure that not only were my grandmothers wishes fulfilled but also helping to bring in Father Tom. He was my grandmother's favorite local priest and she would have been so thankful we were able to bring him in for her last prayers. We appreciate your willingness to help us be silly and have my grandmother's last convertible ride on her way to rest with my mother. Your staff has been kind, generous and always ready to answer any questions or concerns we had through the entire process. The food was great, the room was quiet and respectful and full of memories of my grandmother. From start to finish you all deserve 5 stars and above. Thank you very much for taking care of my family for so many generations.”

“My wife's burial grounds along with the adjoining sites reserved for my daughter, son-in-law and grandson, had fallen into a state of serious decline. What was once a peaceful family section had deteriorated into excessive mulch, and a landscape that no longer reflected the dignity these resting places deserve. The natural balance of the area had collapsed, and it was painful to see. I met with Angelique to express my concerns and to describe the kind of environment I believed was appropriate for my wife's memorial and the surrounding plots. She listened with care, understood the importance of what I was asking, and prepared a thoughtful, well-considered plan that reflected every detail I described. The restoration has been completed by the grounds team, and the transformation is remarkable. The area has been renewed into a tranquil, beautifully curated landscape. The stately palm trees rise gracefully toward the clear blue sky, and beneath them stretches a perfectly manicured lawn of vibrant green grass--lush, bright and full of life. The bushes are arranged in carefully mulched nooks around the bases of the palms, creating a layered intentional appearance that feels both peaceful and dignified. The excessive mulch that once overwhelmed the grounds is gone, replaced by a balanced, harmonious design that restores the sense of reverence this place deserves. Angelique was instrumental in making this happen. Her professionalism, her understanding of the emotional weight of this project, and her commitment to completing the work exactly as promised to do have brought comfort and gratitude to me and my family. Memorial Park Cemetery is fortunate to have someone who approaches her work with such respect and care. I am deeply appreciative of the restoration and the renewed beauty of this family resting place, and the continued knowledge to know that Memorial Park Cemetery continues to maintain one of the most reverent burial grounds in Pinellas County.”
