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.

“Lewis Funeral Chapel provided exceptional service during one of the hardest moments of our lives. Riley Beneux went above and beyond for me and my family, guiding us through every step with genuine care, patience, and compassion. Her kindness and attention to detail helped us honor and celebrate the life of our beloved Lady Di with dignity and love. We are also grateful for the support of Xavier Griffin, whose gentle service added to the comfort we felt throughout this process. And special shoutout to Sydney as well for her care and assistance. Our family is truly thankful for their professionalism and their hearts. Highly recommend.”

“The staff at Lewis Funeral Home are wonderful and they helped my family navigate the loss of my father. In particular, Riley Beneux was exceptionally kind, knowledgeable, and helpful. I am very appreciative of Riley and the entire Lewis team for excellent service. I strongly recommend Lewis Funeral Home without any reservations.”
— Kevin Mason
“This funeral home thinks that it is okay to use generative ai to make obituaries without asking the family beforehand. It shows complete lack of care and compassion for the love ones who are grieving.”
— Kelli Atchley
