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 cannot thank Monti-Rago Funeral Home enough for all their care and compassion during this difficult time for my family. From start to finish they were all so very professional and personal. I truly felt like they were my family. Mark helped us through the entire planning process so kindly and made it easy for us to understand and process what was going on and what needed to be done. Anything we asked for, he made sure we had it. We left there feeling so relieved and happy with how the service was going to be. I would like to thank Dominic for how kind and sympathetic he was with our family when it was time to visit my mother-in-law the night before her services. He welcomed my family into the funeral home and let us take our time. He even made a slide show with beautiful pictures and songs for all our family and friends to watch. They sent us home with an amazing package that even included a copy of that slide show. Thank you to Mark, Dominic, Jake and the rest of the staff for being so pleasant, mindful, attentive and friendly! You made it easy for us on one of the hardest days of our lives and we thank you tremendously!”

“Mark Rago and his entire staff are extremely professional and caring. From the minute my Mom passed they were there for us. They were extremely caring when they came to pick Mom up. Mark is the most gentle and caring person at a time when you need that. His staff were there for us, whatever we needed, they provided, effortlessly. The services were beautiful. They set up Mom’s Urn, the flowers and the family pictures perfectly. They made a sad and difficult time much easier for all of us. I can’t thank Mark and his staff enough for making everything perfect.”
