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.

“The most beautiful experience our family has ever had with a funeral. I will forever recommend Gary Maxwell and Team! There’s simply no one better. My father was laid to rest in style, in celebration of his life and looking every bit as handsome as he had before entering the hospital. There is no funeral Home who could touch every aspect better than these guys! Thankful forevermore for a truly loving experience, we were truly treated like family! Gary, Keith and Dennis are spectacular, I think they may be real life Angels in disguise! Our entire family who attended today expressed joy and I can voice that in the midst of our loss from this experience start to finish, it was made a thousand times easier! Thank you!!”

“I am writing this review in appreciation for all that your staff did to make the passing of my loved one a wonderful experience. First, my family was not local to VA and when our uncle passed we had no one to direct us. My cousin visited two other businesses prior to entering your establishment when she arrived from TN. Your staff (Kyle) was so understanding and although we didn't know what my uncle had available, he began immediately helping her figure out where to start. As I stated the entire staff was professional and the day of the funeral at Pleasant Valley Memorial Park became a memorable moment for all the family members who where able to travel to VA. It was not difficult to write this review.”
