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.

“We had an absolutely outstanding experience working with Garret Norton in purchasing our new vehicle. From start to finish, Garret made the entire process smooth, professional, and genuinely enjoyable. What really stood out was his honesty and transparency. There was zero pressure — just straightforward answers, clear communication, and a real effort to make sure we felt confident in our decision. He took the time to understand exactly what we needed and went above and beyond to make it happen. Garret was knowledgeable about every detail, patient with our questions, and incredibly responsive throughout the process. Buying a vehicle can sometimes feel overwhelming, but he made it feel easy and even exciting. If you’re in the market for a new vehicle, I cannot recommend Garret Norton enough. He truly delivers a five-star experience and treats you like more than just a sale.”
