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
“Last month we discovered that my Wife had Stage Four Cancer, so I decided that I wanted to have a beautiful place to put our remains. And I didn’t want to wait till the moment arrived. So, I remembered our visits to Mount Lindo Cemetery and decided that it was a serene and beautiful place for people to visit and reflect. I contacted the cemetery and a Damon Henry contacted me. Mr Henry was very professional and very understanding. We went to Mount Lindo and I found the perfect place for our final resting place. We went to the Garden of the Cross Mausoleum, there was an eye level crypt open so I purchased it for my Wife and I. During this entire process Mr Henry was outstanding. The family has not yet decided on a funeral home yet, but with my experience with Mr Henry his funeral home will definitely be in the top two choices. I hated having to do this, I always expected my wife to outlive me and she still might. But, we now have our cemetery property and that’s a huge relief. Thank you Olinger Mount Lindo Cemetery and thank you Damon Henry.”

“The Mount Lindo Cross, located at the Olinger Mount Lindo Cemetery near Morrison, Colorado, is a striking feature of the Denver skyline, especially at night. This illuminated cross stands an impressive 393 feet tall, with arms that span 254 feet across, making it a monumental and easily recognizable landmark. The cross was built in 1964 by Francis C. Van Derbur, a Denver resident, with a deeply personal purpose. He wanted his wife to have a way to see his final resting place from their Denver home, ensuring that even after his passing, a connection would remain. The result is a shining symbol of remembrance that is both deeply moving and visually stunning. Visible from miles away, the cross is most breathtaking at night when it lights up the mountainside. Its prominent location on Mount Lindo, near U.S. Route 285, allows it to be seen clearly from the Denver metro area, making it not only a landmark for the city but also a beacon of reflection and comfort for those who look upon it. Whether you’re driving through the foothills or gazing from downtown Denver, the Mount Lindo Cross serves as a beautiful reminder of enduring love and legacy.”
