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.
“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.

From the very beginning, the staff guided me through every step of the process with patience and kindness, making sure I felt supported and informed. They were very upfront and transparent about services and pricing, which brought a great deal of comfort and trust. I was out of state, and they went above and beyond to assist with paperwork, ensuring everything was handled promptly. Communication was excellent — they were always responsive.

From beautifully designing the programs, thoughtfully setting up the viewing room, and incorporating meaningful personal touches like his favorite hat and eyewear, to creating a personalized obituary that truly reflected him — every detail mattered to them.

The owner, Mrs. Avis Boyd, and her dedicated staff handled every technical detail with precision; allowing our family to focus on memories and our grief.
