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
“My sister’s passing was unexpected and therefore harder to say goodbye. I chose Newcomers as I wanted to break from where my family traditionally laid our loved ones to rest. We met with Maria who helped us remember the best of my sister and the beautiful person she was. Maria honored my sister by giving her the much deserved respect that was so due to her. Maria brought much comfort and peace in allowing us to share our love and memories of my sister. I will never forget her kindness”
— Jessica Hewitt
“We met with Funeral Director Tiffany Rhodes in March because we knew my mother was on hospice and her time was near. Tiffany made us feel welcome and walked us through our options. When she passed we worked with Maria Barrett. Maria is detailed thorough and compassionate. She made sure every detail of my mother’s visitation and mass went perfectly. Marty and Alex were on site and could not have been more attentive to our needs and making sure every aspect of her visitation was comfortable for the family relatives and friends. My mother’s casket was beautiful. She was presented as she was in life. Small pictures of the flowers were adhered to the delivery cards for reference. Marty made sure the flowers were sent to my mother’s assisted living facility and another to be enjoyed. A mother’s funeral is never easy but Newcomer’s Funeral Home made us feel comfortable and provided an experience that was a fitting tribute to my mother.”
— Joan Daleo
“Shout out to Newcomer Funeral Home! We visited the funeral home for the first time the day before my sister passed. They were closed but Marty was working, he opened the door and literally treated us like family. He provided clear information and guidance on how we should proceed if we decided to go with Newcomer. My family worked with Abigail to plan the services for my sister. She was compassionate, patient and thorough. She didn't miss a beat. The service was beautiful and the entire process was executed with precision. Thank you so much Abigail, Marty and everyone at Newcomer who had a hand in making my sister's homegoing celebration so special. We would definitely use Newcomer funeral home again!”
