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.

“I cannot say enough about the professionalism and compassion shown to me during the recent loss of my sister. My sister had purchased an insurance policy in early 2000. I was not sure who to talk with but from the moment I contacted Thompson Funeral, the process was seamless. Terry was phenomenal! He reached out to me to coordinate paperwork and other arrangements. All of this was happening at a distance. Losing a loved one is hard enough but your staff lessened my burden! Thank you so much!”
