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.

“O’Connell funeral home did wonderful handling our mom‘s celebration of life. We needed to have her funeral within three days and they made everything fall into place perfectly. Everything was done properly, correctly, with understanding and compassion.”
— Sandy Harvey
“After a lot of thought, I have decided to ask the O'Connell Funeral Home in Little Chute Wisconsin to handle my funeral arrangements when I pass. I have seen Tim and Jenny at two separate funerals and their work was efficient, compassionate, and caring. When I first met Jenny, she was so involved and caring for the deceased that I mistook her for being religious staff person in charge of the beautiful Church where the funeral took place. Tim is just as concerned and compassionate. I witness him not only managing the device to carry the deceased out of the church but assisting workers in lowering the deceased into her resting place. Their tender care and professionalism have convinced me that their funeral home will honor my final wishes.”
— Earl Curtis
“O'Connell Funeral Home recently provided services for the parent of a dear family friend. We couldn't be there because we live many states away, but Jenny helped deliver a very heartfelt message to her. Truly compassionate service that went well beyond what is expected. We were extremely grateful for her willingness to assist us.”
— Mary Lee Rositch
