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.

“The best in the area. Leon has a gift for taking care of your loved one and making them look exactly like they are sleeping. No caked on makeup, just beautiful. He has a heart of gold. His staff is friendly & respectful. He respects your wishes & does everything in his power to accommodate your needs. I have been to MANY viewings and funerals done by Leber's and have not seen one thing that I would change. Keep up the great work, you have a gift and should be very proud of the job you do.”

“Hands down 5 stars. I'm absolutely appalled by the other review as I feel it's extremely off. My friends, family on both sides, and others have been using their service since before my grandparents were adults! This home is family owned and you can tell as they are very down to earth, understanding, kind, HONEST, and genuinely care and respect the deceased and their families. Leon like his late father, is very thorough with process, costs, services, and another and answering questions. I just lost my mother and I knew she was in the best care she could be in just like everyone else. Leon is such a pleasant person that has a sense of humor thats "a breath of fresh air" but knows when and were it can be used and is also very serious when it comes to the services and working with him. He's come after hours to accommodate us and was very understanding and flexible with us to pick up her ashes..we did not have to wait for her ashes.. we just had transportation issues. The home itself is cozy, safe, CLEAN ,and beautiful. His sister (Melinda) answers their 24 hour call center. Trust me you will be assured anything you.need, messages you need to leave, and questions you have will be answered and call backs are done in a timely manner. She's also very nice! The other review is crazy as this is not a low class, disrespectful place or family as described in the last bit. So, please don't hesitate to use their services because of that review. They respect the deceased the same as the living. There's been alot in the news of OTHER homes that are disrespectful, disgusting, and simply lack morale..so wouldnt you want to be assured and confident that your loved one is cared for w the utmost respect and top level care?? Because with this home you will get above and beyond!Thank you for your phenomal service over the years..i would never trust anyone else to care for my family. UPDATE: my grandmother just passed &was hospice so i was worried about my kids. They were very discreet & respectful. He asked if we wantedd a few minutes in which we did & they qaird outside But they saved my kids potential extra heartbreak.just sayin, another review of that place to show consistency and how serious they take their job.”
