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.

“Do NOT trust these people with in your time of agony. They are scammers , they allow a guy name George Worrell to pretend to be a funeral director using their business. Kohaeth Knight refused to refund me $6800 id given them towards my 16yr old daughter’s funeral. Since i decided to go with another funeral home when I found out I was being charged triple the amount for every service they were supposed to provide. They never allowed me to pick out a casket they charged me $5000 for a casket and $900 to wrap it. Knight ended up dropping my daughter’s body off with no casket just a sheet covering her to the new funeral home . These people are sick , I have a lawsuit against them now& criminal charges are being filed . They have been reported to the Security of State as well. Knight did even more horrendous things that I can’t even sum up here. Please stay away from this funeral home.. The Donehoo- Lewis name was bought by The Knight family they are disgraceful to them .”

“I was very pleased with the compassion extended to the many, many mourners at a funeral of a friend of mine, and this same care was extended to me after the funeral - customer service, friendliness, promptness, and flexibility.”

“My personal experience with this business was excellent. At first I was reluctant to release my father into their care because I didn’t know of them… but oh boy let me tell you. The services we received were beyond excellent, my dad was very well taken care of. When I received the call to come view him, I was taken by the job that was done, he look exactly like himself. They also prepared him to be flown to New York where his services were to take place, he arrived on time, and undisturbed. I’m forever thankful for the owners of Donehoo- Lewis Funeral Home Debbie and Jeff. I would also like to add that Mr. and Mrs. Knight, your work on my dad was complemented over and over… it’s said to be very outstanding and very detailed. I would recommend this business to any, and everyone who are looking for Comfort, dignity, quality, and care at the time of a loved one’s passing. You guys were the best. Thank you Donehoo Lewis Funeral Home in Hapeville GA.”
