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 Rosary/Viewing evening to the next day of Mass following the cemetery cervices all went very well as expected. If needed in the future we would love Funeraria de Angel to support once again.

“Jose and his staff were extremely helpful and attentive to our needs during this difficult time in our lives. We were in a unique situation due to our loved one passing away in Mexico and us having no knowledge on the process to be able to get him home. Jose and his team were quick to answer any questions we had and guide us in the process. They worked together with a funeral home in Mexico and were able to get him transferred home to us promptly. Jose was very involved and communicated with me daily and gave me updates along the whole process allowing me to work on everything else that I needed to work on. I am very grateful for all of the help and would highly recommend Jose and his staff at Funeraria del Angel.”
