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.

“It was an especially difficult time in my life. After suffering through Cancer for two years, my husband, Ray, passed away. I was in the hospital with pneumonia and lung issues. I had to tell him goodbye over the phone. His family kids and grandkids were all with him. They said his face lit up when he heard me facetime him that I loved him. He opened his eyes and said it back to me. Thirty minutes later he passed over into Heaven. So I was able to tell him goodbye afterall. Thanks to the good folks at Carraway in Lufkin , the family was able to sit down and plan the whole funeral at their location with me on facetime. They were so gracious to help my family and me with all the arrangements and suggestions. After I got out of the hosplital, we went to the funeral home to see him..I was so proud of the kids and all the preparations they had made. The rest of the services couldn't have been more comforting. Thank you Carraway and especially Russell Harvey, our friend. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND MEND. THANK YOU SO MUCH GAIL HALL & FAMILY OF RUBEN RAY HALL”

“The folks at Carroway were compassionate and sensitive to our loss, while at the same time professional and thorough in providing us with all of our options. They expedited our meeting and I never got the sense that their goal was to optimize their financial gain. This is not my first go around with Carroway Funeral Home and I could not be more pleased with their service and their follow up contact with us. Thank ya'll for everything guys!”

“Professionalism at its BEST. I have had the opportunity to meet many Funeral Directors and work with some of the best in the industry. When the decision for me to choose a Funeral Home for the final disposition for my Mother, it was a no brainer for me. Roy Carroway and his staff was for sure the best choice and was exactly what I needed during this difficult time in my life. Serving Families is what I knew Roy does best!!!”
