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.

“From the moment I received works the funeral home was receiving my sister I was met with nothing but the most warm, kind service from Earl and his staff. The entire process was difficult for me understandably because my sister passed so suddenly, but Earl was patient with me and insisted that we were gonna get through the process to take care of things and when he said “we” I knew she was in good hands. I met with Earl in person to discuss arrangements to have my sister sent to Alabama for her service and the entire week before we had in person talks I was constantly updated on all things I needed to complete the process and the day of our in person meeting, it was everything I expected; professional, warm hearted, easy conversation and patience. I can’t say enough great things about Earl and Wendt. I truly thank you for making one of the most horrible experiences for me comforting and a bit easier during such a difficult time.”
