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
“Late to the appointment we had set up due to a snow storm. We were upset as we lost a loved one. They managed to redeem themselves by giving us a free viewing for my father and arranged for him to be sent home at a cheaper fare since he had to go to Pennsylvania. My issue is that if you own any business you should be on time in our case we were extra sensitive since we had lost a loved one. The funeral director also worked to get my father military honors and a flag on his casket for his final trip home.”

“Unable after eight weeks to obtain death certificates out of state no one calls back. They said they would overnight but had a problem sent in regular mail still don’t have them so much for compassion and caring.. And as of 10/31/24 we still don’t have them 67 days”
— Diane Dutko
“My brother passed away in November 2023. The staff was kind and professional. Even though we were 1500 miles away they helped us and charged a fair price.”
— Diana James
