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.

“A majestic historical place of worship still in operation. The congregation is welcoming and open to those in and out of the faith. They offered answers to questions not only about the physical church but also the faith it represents without pushing. It is a land of peaceful historical zen.”
— Dr Edward J Gerety III

“This original church from the colonial period Is definitely worth visiting. Amongst the famous people who attended his church, are George Washington, Patrick Henry, and Thomas Jefferson. Standing in the sanctuary where they once worshiped was quite spectacular. The people in the church were very helpful in teaching us the history of the church.”
