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.

“Kelly Cremation and Funeral Care was wonderful in the very sad process. The support and care they provided to us and our friends and family was nothing less than amazing. Tom was exceptional.

“One of my close friends passed away unexpectedly, and we found ourselves urgently searching for a funeral home within a very short timeframe. After speaking with several places, what truly set Kelly Cremation and Funeral Care apart was their empathy, flexibility, and deep respect. From the very beginning, they made us feel cared for. They took the time to understand our cultural background and the traditions we follow. They listened attentively to our rituals and were incredibly supportive and accommodating throughout the entire process. Every step of the way, they ensured that our needs were met with compassion and professionalism. We are deeply grateful for everything they did for us. Thank you so much.”

“Kelly cremation and funeral care was my go to initially because the prices were in our range. However, upon the first conversation with their staff I was greeted with care and empathy. Michelina especially made our experience with my father's services very personal. She answered all of our questions and the whole staff is very patient and caring. They made a very difficult and emotional time in my family's lives just that much easier. Thank you”
