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
“We were working with Covington Memorial and they told us a price and then a week before the funeral told us the cost was double. So, we switched to MidWest and they did everything in less than a week and did a great job. They were so much more affordable and honest. I would highly recommend them.”
— Ryan Davis
“Unfortunately, our one year old little dog Molly passed recently. Midwest was there during a difficult time for us and cremated our dog at a very reasonable price while being respectful and helping to honor her memory. Very grateful to this great company.”
— Brian Brandon
“These people are so very kind and so helpful. I cannot say enough good things about how family oriented and respectful they are. Never can I thank them enough for the help they gave me in my time of need. The price they charge is rock bottom the best in Fort Wayne and the surrounding area. You can't go wrong intrusting you beloved one to this non corporate funeral home Also, if you need a beloved pet cremated they do this service also These kind people DO NOT advertise their services, so pass this information along.
