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
“I cannot say enough about how Gunderson walked us thru our journey. From the time we met a couple of years go to discuss and confirm Ted and my arrangements to the day that we had to walk this road, everyone was so kind and helpful and truly grieved with our daughters and myself. Allyssa and Janelle went out of their way to bring comfort and understanding to the entire process. We are very fortunate to have Gunderson Funeral home in our hometown. The after care that is offered will be helpful as time goes on. Thank you all so very much for making a rough time in our lives easier. God Bless, Ann, Stephanie, Jennifer and family I would be remiss if I did not mention the After Care service that Kathy Oxford had with me. She was very thorough and patient with all my questions. It was a tremendous help with knowing what things needed to be done and who should be contacted. After our conversation, Kathie sent me an e mail with everything we had talked about. That was very helpful and I have referred to it several times. Again a very professional, helpful and caring funeral home. ❤️ Ann”

“The people were highly professional, but at the same time genuinely thoughtful and caring. They provide many options and work with you on how little or how much you want. They even provide after care to help you with all the details and loose ends when your mind and emotions are taxed. I highly recommend their services.”
— Kim Marsh
“Very very kind, caring, helpful staff. Let us set the tone of all of our meetings. If we wanted to speak quietly, that's what we did. If we needed to laugh at something, that's what we did. The follow-up call to make sure we are doing OK, and getting the paperwork done was also great.”
— Robyn Wood
