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.

“I had a wonderful experience with Cadillac Memorial West. Geraldine and Brea were so helpful and kind during this experience. The ladies were so professional and answered all my questions in full detail. I would definitely recommend Cadillac Memorial for your loved ones resting place.”

“Geraldine was amazing to work with! She really took the time to answer all our questions and explained everything in a way my Mom could understand. She was very kind, patient, and compassionate. Thank You Geraldine!”

“The unimaginable happened and my father-in-law got stuck going into the wall there. His casket was literally hanging half in half out of the wall for about half an hour. Multiple family members are in that wall and never have we experienced this. They had to get out a backhoe and shove him in. It felt like an eternity watching this. Our other loved ones where being shook around in that wall also. Are they okay now? His casket is completely damaged in the wall and that's all I think about day and night. 50 family members and friends had to witness this. Obviously the wall isn't in the same shape it was when it was built so that needs looked into as our family has more spots purchased in that same wall still waiting on family. We had to witness our families most beloved man go through this without a word of condolences from the cemetery about it. Absolutely disgusting. I give negative 10 stars this time. I personally will not use this place for myself. I will never put my children through that. That is someone's father, brother, grandfather, great grandfather. I personally felt like he was disrespected and the whole thing could have been prevented”
