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.

“At the end of the day, hey funeral home is not measured by how fancy their paintings or furniture are. They're measured by the amount of comfort that they give in a family's greatest time of need. They are measured by the compassion that they show in a families moment of sorrow. I was born and raised in Gardner. Bruce funeral home has shown as compassion through my family's greatest memories and losses. I recently experienced a loss of a young husband. I know for a fact , I and my children would not have had the peace of mind we were given without the service that Bruce gave to us. I will forever feel gratitude for the compassion and professionalism that Bruce showed us in our greatest time of need.”
— Jo Kleinsorge

From the bottom of our hearts Thank you to Shane and Shirley and everyone involved.”
