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 son passed away in Aurora, CO and I live in Michigan. Horan & McConaty was wonderful to work with long distance, especially Elizabeth our funeral director. Myself and other family traveled to Aurora to attend the activities we had arranged for our son and H&M far exceeded our expectations. We were treated with great compassion for our loss and my son was treated with the utmost respect. Our every question was answered and every request gladly fulfilled. We will always remember the wonderful experience we had at H&M as we honored our son for the last time and laid him to his final rest. Thank you Elizabeth and H&M!”
— Jennifer Haan
“My family and I had the most wonderful and meaningful experience at Horan & McConaty Funeral Home (Dartmouth location in Denver) for my father’s funeral. The facility was beautiful, peaceful, and perfectly fitting for my father’s personality. The staff made everything simple and stress-free for us. We provided them with the information and media they requested, and they created a personalized slideshow of photos beautifully enhanced with eagles and mountains—my father’s favorite things. Their attention to detail with everything brought so many happy tears. They also recorded the entire service, capturing both the speeches and the warm greetings among guests. I was deeply impressed by the quality of the video and the clarity of the sound. Overall, the care, professionalism, and thoughtfulness shown by the staff made a difficult time feel comforting, meaningful, and truly special for our family.”

“Our family worked with Horan & McConaty after the sudden passing of our father, and we cannot say enough about their compassion and professionalism. We had just one week to plan the memorial, and they made what could have been overwhelming feel manageable It truly felt like a proper send-off. They guided us through every step with patience and genuine care. The service was beautiful. So many people commented on how well it honored our dad. They treated him with dignity and treated our family with kindness. If you're looking for a funeral home that will care for your loved one, and for you, with heart and professionalism, this is the place.”
