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.
“Do you offer payment plans?”
Many funeral homes allow you to spread the cost over time. Ask about down payments, terms, and financing options.
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
“We were visiting from across state to pray at their adoration chapel and what a gorgeous church. Most importantly we were greeted by a friendly parish member and shown where to worship. If I lived on this coast this would be my home.”
— Jeffrey A.
“Best parish in the diocese of Saint Petersburg!”
— Ethan Horrigan
“It feels odd rating a church but I thought this place deserved a shout out. It has been hard to find a Catholic church around here with what seems to be a welcoming and family centered congregation. The church itself is absolutely beautiful and the unique design of the Altar placement was really nice. The priest was down to earth, easy to listen to, and inviting. His homily was focused on humanity and the positive brilliance of it rather than the judge mental diatribes that have seemingly flooded the other places I have been to. This church had a school attached and they also seem to have an active teen program and a church band. If you're in the area and need a place for mass, I suggest this one.”
— Sarah Kent
