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
“Leonard Holtz was the consummate professional and also just the caring person I needed to guide me through the process of planning and executing my mother's funeral. I could not have made a better choice. He anticipated and handled every detail in what could have been a complicated event due to the funeral being out-of-state. He also worked very well with our clergy. He made the event accessible via zoom for people who could not attend. The video of the funeral is a keepsake that I and my family will treasure forever. In all, I cannot thank Leonard and his staff enough for helping us honor my mother with a ceremony befitting her.”

“Hy’s Limousine Worldwide service has engaged in orchestrating several bad reviews against Hebrew Funeral Association by some of their drivers and associates beginning after March 14, 2023, for not using his hearse livery service. Six Individuals associated with the owner Bob Levine of Hy's, particularly a man named Chuck Rivellini, who works for CVS in nursing, in the Woodbridge area, is close with Hy's and someone I have never dealt with. This Rivellini is a liar for hire by Hy's and has had no connection to our Jewish niche services. At the same time Rivellini was giving a slanderous review he was giving Hy's a 5 star review. I will be taking legal action action against him. Bob Levine is retaliating for me dropping the use of his hearse livery service. His rating as a business is an F with the Better Business Bureau. The Hebrew Funeral Association has an A rating with the CT Better Business Bureau.”
