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.

What Families Say
“I lost my Mom suddenly this past November and had to take on the planning for her without any instructions left by her. Doug at Fawcett-Junker was so amazing. From the first phone call I felt like he really cared about my family. He understood the limitations we were look at financially and never tried to pressure any “up sales”. Doug went above and beyond to help secure my Mom’s plot at the cemetery when we were initially told it would not work. I could not recommend Fawcett more. Anytime I had a question it was answered with compassion and care. Doug even gave me advice which helped me deal with her insurance company when we ran into issues with them months after her burial. This was not my first experience with Fawcett. When my grandparents passed away my family went through them as well and I would not choose any other place to care for your family during that difficult time.”
— Amanda Schultz
“It has been 12 years since my Dad, Marvin Fenske, has passed. And I didn't realize that John had a website to rate how professional and caring my Dad's service was handled. They were so helpful through the entire process from making the arrangements to the CD with the photos that played with our songs we had picked out. They were so kind and caring through everything. I highly recommend John and Fawcett-Junker Funeral Home to anyone who is unsure where to turn. I was very happy with our choice of picking them to take care of my father at such an emotional time.”
— Dawn Thompson
“The sudden loss of our mom was a complete shock to my family. The care and attention to detail for the services and burial by the entire staff at Fawcett-Junker but especially Doug will always be remembered. At such a difficult time he helped us through the process to make this entire ordeal very special for our family. Our Mom would have been honored! Thank you!”
