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
“My experience at Gorsline-Runciman was so easy because my husband had prepaid for his funeral . Everyone that I dealt with was so helpful. They did whatever needed to be done. They even arranged the flowers so beautifully and brought the flowers to my house after the funeral. I didn’t know that they were going to do that. It was a pleasant surprise.”
— Joann Sullivan
“Randy was so kind and helpful and respectful. Everybody who took care of us, from picking up her body to delivering her ashes and death certificates was so kind and comforting. I'm grateful for your heartfelt care and support during this painful and difficult process. I would choose G/R again.”
— barbara blackburn
“Mandy was so personal and kind. She explained everything to detail. Very thorough and not pushy in any way. We knew what we wanted, and we even saved $$. If we need to change anything, we have that option too. Very professional and we recommend Mandy. Ty for being there for us. The Wards”
