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.

What Families Say
“Alicia and I met at the Glenville Funeral Home through her calling as a Funeral Director. A few trusted friends had been guided by her and I was there for others who had services there. I went away with a peaceful feeling for every family member and comfort about their loss. I recently was in their position and thankfully I received such wonderful support there also. I highly endorse the services they provided me and my family. She knows more than anyone else how to guide you through this process in a professional and personalized way. Please accept my grateful praise for each of you, Alicia in particular and your service. Thankfully, Tina Kelly.”

“My Mom and I sat down with Brittany and pre planned funeral arrangements for my Dad and Mom. Brittany was wonderful. Listened to what my mom wanted for both of them. Brittany went through the entire process with patience and kindness. Unbeknownst to my Mom and I we would need Glenville Funeral Homes services sooner than any of us had expected. My Dad passed away this past December. Brittany was so compassionate. We met with her to finalize all the plans. Brittany again listen to us and guided us through the days coming up to the funeral. She even found the one song that my Mom wanted played. Brittany took care of everything, smoothly with no issues. The kindness and compassion we as a family received from everyone at The Glenville Funeral Home was unparalleled. I highly recommend Brittany and associates.”
