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.

“We laid my grandfather to rest yesterday and I felt it only necessary to review today. This place was amazing! We really wanted to make it personable because my grandfather was an amazing man, veteran, father, husband, brother and so much more! These people were so helpful! They even added their own touch. The environment seems more of a celebration of life than a passing and I really appreciated that. It’s extremely clean and so professional. Shawn Woody and Sue were amazing to work with! Anything we needed they were on it. This loss was a tough one for me so I really really appreciate every single person involved. My grandfather deserved the best and Sue and Shawn made sure that’s exactly what he got”
