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
“Donna and her team did a great job making my father’s funeral stress free. She met with us quickly, gave us easy to process bundled options for the casket, worked closely with the church and cemetery, helped write a lovely obituary that was a great tribute and created a truly hassle free experience. We could not say enough good things about the service at Bussell.”

“I reached out to Donna and from the beginning she was authentic and compassionate. She was very personal and a great communicator. I never felt rushed and she gave me the time and space to make decisions. Donna is a professional and was a blessing to have taking care of our loved one who passed.”
— Andrew Byerly
“This place is full of angels. We lost our son at 11 weeks, and Debbie took care of everything for us. She made us feel like family, and I will always remember the kindness and compassion shown. I will always recommend them.”
