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
“We cannot express enough gratitude to Colonial Funeral Home for the extraordinary care they provided our family during one of the most difficult times of our lives. From the very first conversation to the final moments of the service, the Emily & Staff treated our family with kindness, patience, and genuine empathy. They walked us through every step, answered every question, and made sure my Dad was honored in a way that reflected the love and respect we have for him. During a time when emotions are overwhelming, Colonial Funeral Home created an atmosphere of peace and professionalism that allowed us to focus on remembering and celebrating my father’s life. We will forever be grateful for their grace, their organization, and their heartfelt support. Thank you, for helping us honor him so beautifully”
— Jessica Wilson
“Emily and her staff at the Colonial were excellent to work with and were genuinely kind and caring to our family throughout this process. They finalized transport of our parents from different counties during the holidays, contacted multiple justices of the peace regarding death certificates, and even navigated a separate military burial outside of town. We were well-informed and had no surprises on coordination or cost from start to finish. This level of communication and professionalism cannot be overstated when dealing with a family tragedy. We can't thank them enough, and we would highly recommend them for anyone else in need of funeral services.”
— Joshua & Celine H.
“Justin and his staff at Colonial were helpful, professional, compassionate, informative and thorough in the the process of putting our parents to rest. Follow ups were prompt, while any and all questions were answered with kindness and patience. We would recommend them for any family needing services after the loss of a loved one.”
— Patty Zapalac
