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.

“Our family would like to express our heartfelt gratitude to Emily and the entire staff for the compassionate and professional care they provided during such a difficult time. We are especially grateful to Emery for her incredible attention to every detail and the amazing way she made our loved one look so natural and at peace. Her work brought us great comfort! A special thank you to Kerry who stayed in touch with me throughout the entire year. That level of continued care meant more than we can express. Thank you all for helping our family get through one of the hardest moments of our lives!”

“My Siberian husky Baylie suddenly passed earlier this summer, and I was absolutely devastated. I reached out to Lasting Tributes, and Christina helped me. She rushed immediately to help me, and consoled me as well. Professionally and quickly explained the entire process, and the pricing breakdown. She made a terrible day as painless and smooth as could be. She was genuine in her care and I cannot recommend her or Lasting Tributes Cremation more. Will be using their services in the future! A+++”
— Russell Kletter
“My wife and I had such a wonderful experience working with Kristal and Ryan. Kristal is incredibly organized and sincere, and from the very beginning she made us feel cared for and supported. Ryan explained everything clearly and guided us with patience and professionalism, which brought us real peace of mind. Putting our plans in place truly felt like a gift to our family. We are so grateful for their kindness, integrity, and genuine care. Highly recommend!”
