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
“They were so empathetic and they gave us a beautiful service for my husband. They went over and above my expectations. Eric was awesome and Father Comerford as the cherry on top. I highly recommend them”
— Pat Rapan
“Erick handled my sons services just about a year ago , today he handled my aunts funeral and he still remembered me and checked up on me and my family. Even a the end of my aunts service he made sure to find me and wish me well and give his condolences . If you ever find yourself needing mortuary services i recommend utter McKinley and ask for Erick . Thank you for being you”
— Michael Varelas
“Such an incredible team! I called about 20+ mortuaries and many were just plain rude. I think they were sent from heaven! The whole process was easy and they were reassuring through it all. During the pandemic that is rare to see. If I could rate them above a 10 I would. Erick was incredible and was there for the whole family anyway he could be! Truly a great experience! If you are looking for a mortuary call them. You will not regret it. God bless you all! In behalf of the Rodriguez family we thank you from the bottom of our hearts!”
