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 had a wonderful experience, inspite of the circumstance. All the employees I met were sympathetic and professional. There was never a rush or pressure placed while making arrangements. They made sure every detail was explained. Devanshae went above and beyond, including a beautiful poem she quoted at graveside. I would highly recommend Lakeland Funeral Home and Memorial Gardens.”
— Diane
“A few months ago, I walked into Lakeland Funeral Home to arrange my grandmas cremation and service. I am a planner so I wanted to get everything done before she passed so when the time came, I was able to grieve without the extra hoops. When I walked in, I was greeted by Bill- to my surprise was my car salesman 10 years ago. He remembered me and I knew I made the right choice choosing Lakeland Funeral Home. He walked me through the process step by step and truly made it such a good experience- considering what I was there for. My grandma ended up passing and even though we ran into a few hiccups the night of, Bill didn’t hesitate to jump into action and help. I’m so glad I made the choice to have my grandmas end of life arrangements done there. I’m thankful for all of the staff that helped take care of us- Kirk and Janae as well. Thank you all for making one of the hardest times in my life as easy as possible.”
