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.

“From the moment I began making arrangements, F.L. Sims Funeral Home treated me with compassion, professionalism, and genuine care. During such a difficult time, they made the entire process feel smooth and well-guided. A special thank you to Linda Thrasher, who was incredibly kind, patient, and attentive to every detail.

“We recently entrusted Sims Funeral Home with my uncle's services, and they truly exceeded every expectation. From start to finish, Fernando and his entire staff were incredibly professional, compassionate, and easy to work with during such a difficult time. They handled every detail with care, respect, and genuine kindness, which brought our family so much comfort. We never felt rushed or overwhelmed, and their guidance made the process feel manageable and peacetul. I am deeply grateful for the way they honored my uncle's life. I would highly recommend Sims Funeral Home to anyone looking for a team who truly cares and goes above and beyond for the families they serve.”

“Ms. Linda & the Team at Sims are amazing!! Ms. Linda was great at communicating. She organized a Military Send off for my mother which was amazing. She coordinated with the Mississippi Funeral Home to make sure my mom got here in time. She coordinated with the Cemetery to find the perfect spot. The programs were beautiful, the soloist was amazing. The chapel was beautiful and clean. I love the private room for the viewing. Beautiful details like the name on the casket!!”
