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 run a nonprofit and had 3 - 7 day old kittens I had to bring with me to a funeral. The men in the parking lot were so sweet and would sit and talk with me while I fed the babies in my car. They even offered to bring the entire incubator inside if I thought the babies were going to be too cold. Very compassionate, I appreciated them so much on a hard day.”
— Jillian Jennell
“Val, Becky, Angela and Kyah are wonderful people who care about their families and show great care for their community. They have a beautiful home and really a great staff. I can't recommend a funeral home enough.”
