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
“Arin was absolutely wonderful to work with. She was kind, patient, and explained everything clearly during such a difficult time for our family. She never made us feel pressured and truly cared about making sure we understood all of our options. Her professionalism and compassion meant more than she probably knows. We are so grateful for her help and highly recommend her to anyone planning arrangements at Good Shepherd Memorial Park. She is the best at what she do . You definitely have someone good on your team .”
— Tezzy Martin
“This is a gorgeous, huge cemetery. It has always been kept up really well until recently when we went to place Mother's Day flowers. The grass was high and no maintenance had been done. We have a loved one who was cremated and placed in the Memorial Area under a large tree. It is covered with white gravel and has a large sign with all the names of the people who are there. It has a large statue with benches and a fountain in the center but currently, it isn't operating.”
— Lettie C
“There is a large amount of theft of grave markers going on up close to the mausoleum to the left side close to the driveway. I made a report to the Sheriff’s Office this morning and the Detective instructed me to call the cemetery office as well. There was no answer but I was able to leave my name and number through voicemail.”
