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
“Review and Thank You Note I would like to sincerely thank Sakina and the entire team at Legacy Growney Funeral Home in Hillside, New Jersey for the love, compassion, and professionalism shown to my family and me during one of the most difficult times in our lives. From the moment we arrived, we were greeted not just with kindness, but with genuine warmth and care that could only come from hearts led by God. The service for my loved one was truly above and beyond—handled with such dignity, grace, and attention to detail. My loved one was presented so beautifully, far exceeding anything I could have imagined. I could truly feel God’s presence through the compassion and gentleness of everyone involved. Even when I came to receive the cremation remains, that moment was filled with the same respect, care, and tenderness. Every step of the way, you made us feel comforted and supported. A special thank you for the beautiful memorial blanket—what a precious and thoughtful gift that will always keep our loved one close. It brings comfort and warmth, both to the body and to the heart. Thank you, Sakina, and your wonderful team, for allowing God’s love to shine through your work.

“Legacy Funeral Home provided exceptional care for my grandmother’s cremation. Sakina’s kindness and professionalism made a difficult time much easier for our family. We are so thankful for the respect and compassion shown throughout the entire process.”
— Tiffany Wright-Davis
“Superior in EVERY way! From the initial contact, through each and every step along the way, to the completion of the memorial, Sakinah, her husband, and Maria were remarkably professional, knowledgeable, extremely caring, compassionate, loving, patient, communicative, AND accommodating! Transitions are inevitable, and we entrusted my sister's sudden and tragic transition to Legacy Growney Funeral Home. We are beyond thankful that we did! During a time of bereavement, emotional distress, and uncertainty, the very last things wanted or needed are incompetence and added stress. Luckily, this funeral home understood that completely! On behalf of myself and my family, we are humbly and immensely appreciative for ALL of the exemplary service, guidance, support, kindness, and care extended throughout this entire process. This establishment is unparalleled!”
