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.

“My family would like to express our heartfelt gratitude to Farenga Brothers Funeral Home for the compassion they showed during the funeral arrangements for my father Delroy White. From our very first meeting, the staff treated us with warmth, respect, and understanding, helping us navigate every detail during such a difficult time. The team at Farenga Brothers went above and beyond to ensure everything ran smoothly and that our family felt supported every step of the way. The facility was calm, welcoming, and provided a peaceful setting for family and friends to say their goodbyes. I am truly grateful for the professionalism, empathy, and personal attention shown by Nick and everyone at Farenga Brothers. Their kindness helped ease our pain and allowed us to focus on honoring Delroy’s memory with love and dignity. We would wholeheartedly recommend them to any family in need of caring and professional funeral services.”
