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
“Losing a loved one is never easy. Kevin and the funeral staff were kind, patient, and incredibly professional throughout the entire process. They guided us with compassion and clarity every step of the way, especially as we arranged to transport my father to Mexico so he could be laid to rest in his home country. Even while we were abroad, they remained attentive and responsive. Anytime I needed documents or assistance, they acted quickly and were always willing to help. If you're looking for a funeral service that is compassionate, professional, responsive, and affordable, I wholeheartedly recommend them.”
