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
“The seat of our Bishop. St John's cathedral bears the namesake of St John the Baptist. Well their parochial Vicars may vary at times. Bishop Joseph Brennan is the primary celebrate for the main masses each year. While the vicar general Father Salvador Gonzales usually will cover the rest of the major celebration days. The daily masses are always packed. Then the murals on the walls are absolutely beautiful. With depictions of the Saints. Stained glass windows as well. The outside brick is extremely beautiful. And each day while walking through the downtown, you can hear the bells calling us to Christ. ❤️🔥🕊️”
— Joseph Michael Moore (Infinite Expanding Bubble)
“It is a more beautiful looking church from the inside than the outside. Parking is not so good though. It does not have a large enough dedicated parking lot.”
— Sergio F
“The cathedral in downtown Fresno is a go-to for worshiper's who like an old-school aesthetic look and feel to their house of worship. I highly recommend.”
— Facundo Saavedra
