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.

“Kay was great and made everything easy for us. She helped us through every aspect of the service. Mike, Bill and Joe helped us so much. The kindness shown to our family was much appreciated. I would definitely recommend anyone to go to Curry Funeral Home.”

“Curry Funeral Home has gone above and beyond for me and I'm so grateful for everyone there. I've never met such compassionate people! They really treat you like family. From decisions that had to be made and even after. They set up a team of people who are knowledgeable in all aspects of 'what happens after ' Elizabeth reached out and we went over financial planning, estate and beneficiary for myself if anything were to happen, counseling, mail cut offs,fraud protection etc. it was extremely helpful. I now have peace of mind because I don't have to try to figure out what to do, did I do all of it, is it right? By myself. I can't recommend this place enough. You most definitely have support with Curry, and you have help the entire way. Thank you for everything and then some!”

“I have never been so disappointed in a funeral home. I mean, I'm glad everyone else had a 5 star experience, but my mother-in-law's funeral was a disaster. My fiance asked me to be a pallbearer since my nephew passed out with grief. I said yes, but one of the employers (one of the older owners of the funeral home) told me that I needed to get out of the way. Before that though, the hearse took off without its procession when half of us didn't know where the graveyard was. At the end, they told us to leave so that they could lower her casket into the ground. They didn't even wait for us to leave. I have never been so disappointed in a funeral. It's a good thing I don't live in Dyersburg, because I don't want my corpse and family disrespected like this!”
