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.

“My review of this cemetery is very much warranted. A month ago, my sister and I arrived to make the final arrangements for her recently deceased husband. We met with Judy who made several recommendations for the scheduled funeral that was set for February 20, 2026. When we arrived for the funeral, we were met by the mortuary staff who was so comforting and helpful. The person who made the biggest impact on this day was Priscilla! She was the ultimate professional and my sister and I talked about her continuously for days afterwards. Priscilla definitely has a bright future in whatever profession she chooses. The entire funeral service was beautiful and we received many complements from our family members. Monsignor James Halley was the priest who officiated the Catholic mass and he was wonderful and amazing. The flower arrangement that encircled the urn and recommended by Judy was simply beautiful. Overall, the entire funeral experience was very well worth the money we spent. As a side note, we have many family members buried at this cemetery. May God Bless the entire staff at All Souls Cemetery and Mortuary.”

“On Mother’s Day I left a rose for the Virgin Mary that stands along the Cherry Avenue side of the cemetery and I didn’t like what i saw. The love for what this statue means to people I think it could be cared for much better. Spider webs and huge spider eggs and the arch of pine trees that leads towards her in such terrible shape and not Manicured and falling apart. Perhaps remove them and clean her up would be better than the disrespect shown towards her.”

“This place is well taken care of. Nice lawn and very clean. The only thing I didn’t like was the security. The hours should be updated. It closes at 6 pm and on the web I doesn’t mention that. I drove restless to visit someone there and I was turned away. Very disappointing.!”
