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 brought my best friend Theodore here last Wednesday. The staff are 😇 Angels. I don't know how they do this job. They were so kind and understanding. They gave us time with him, they didn't push us to buy anything. Absolutely top notch individuals here. I greatly appreciate them in these heartwrenching times. Until we meet again my friend 🫂 ❤️”

“I just wanted to say I really appreciate this place. I work at a vet clinic that uses these services for our clients and I have always been impressed. But now that I've had to use services here personally, I can say I am so grateful. The level of genuine kindness and respect shown is amazing. I was of course dreading getting these remains back. But when I saw the sweet extra gesture of this beautiful paw print, I got to smile when I was expecting to cry. (To be fair, I also cried). Thank you for making sure my baby was well taken care of even after she had left me. I got to be confident in the way my little cow was handled and got some beautiful things back to remember her by.”

“I cannot thank the staff enough for the kindness & thoughtfulness they put into taking care of my beloved girl who passed very suddenly last week. My head was spinning and I didn’t even think to ask if the cremation included clay prints, and assumed I wasn’t going to get any. When I picked up her ashes from Med Vet and opened the bag to find the most precious prints I could’ve asked for, I couldn’t help but burst into tears as my heart flowed with gratitude. Thank you thank you for taking the time to make a beautiful memorial piece for my special girl.”
