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
“Vessey Funeral Service provided my daughters and me with a reassuring and comforting experience after the death of my husband, and again one and a half years later upon my mother's death. Summer and Teagan were professional, compassionate and understanding. They patiently explained the whole unfamiliar process and took their time with us as we grappled with the decisions to be made. A private viewing was arranged for us following my husband's death allowing us to find some measure of peace at such a difficult time in our lives. I highly recommend Vessey Funeral Service.”
— Terri Sjogren
“We had the best experience during a very difficult time. Teagan and Steve gave us such professional, thoughtful guidance planning my father's service. They were patient with us with all of our questions & requests and continually emphasized they wanted Dad's service to be exactly the way we wanted it to be. Never once did make us feel we were burdening them. And while it wasn't expected, having them there every step of the way, they became part of our 'family' saying good-bye to a very special man. When we needed it most, Vessey Funeral Services took so much pressure off of us and allowed us a rather stress free experience during a stressful time.”
— Terri Herzog
“Mom’s death was emotionally difficult but arranging and having her funeral was probably easier for me than others. 40 years ago she bought funeral insurance, had documented her wishes and the thoughtful and smart implantation of her 40 year old wishes under what was today’s availability and standards by Vessey was not as stressful for me as perhaps others. Teagan with Vessy guided my family seamlessly through the process with sensitivity to mother’s wishes foremost and all due consideration of our family needs and wants. And… Mr Vessey knew the casket mom wanted was going out of style, so he bought it and stored it free of charge until she passed. He could have charged me storage, but didn’t. Finally mom’s appearance with open casket was very natural, not like so many others I have attended. I’ll have Vessey handle my final arrangements!”
