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.
“Do you offer payment plans?”
Many funeral homes allow you to spread the cost over time. Ask about down payments, terms, and financing options.
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.

“Awesome company, I had to bury my mom 09/27/2025 and as an only child this was a challenging time for me until I used D M Baker mortuary, they were VERY professional and caring. They gave me options and basically held my hand step by step, made suggestions and listened to me, making it so easy to get my mom taken care of. The process of burying a loved one can be challenging but not with the assistance of their staff. I am greatly honored to have been assisted by Donna and Damon. HIGHLY APPRECIATED AND RECOMMEND them to care for your loved ones transition. Tara Hill 🥰”

“Damon and his team were so amazing. Unfortunately I had to face my 18 year old being murdered by her boyfriend in a domestic violence situation which was such an emotional rollercoaster of emotions and confusion, however Damon and his team made this process as painless as he possibly could considering the circumstances. I couldnt have asked for anyone to have handled my daughter and all of the details and care for her service any better than he did. He was extra professional and amidst the trauma was even able to make us smile. This happening to my baby was the worst moment of my life and he was able to help our family so much by taking the services into his hands to make it as easy and painless as possible for us and for that I am so grateful. Thank you so much to you and your entire staff and for being the loving caring people that you guys are. The fans and the programs you did were absolutely beautiful and you guysare truly wonderful people and so amazing for helping us through this. We are forever grateful.”
