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.

“The service, attention to detail, and willingness to understand and accommodate my family was unmatched. I trusted this funeral home with my mother who passed and I was very particular about what I wanted for my mother. Not once did this funeral home make my family feel like a bother to them. Every time that I called or texted the funeral home point of contact, who was provided specifically and directly to our family for the burial, she answered with a willingness to help. The services provided were top notch, to include the vehicles, the police escorts, the musicians, the singer, the flowers, assistants….everything! Everything was beautiful and thoughtful. I can’t thank you enough!”
— Quentin Long
“I am over ecstatic with the delivery of service. Very compassionate and pleasant towards my family. Great elegance was expressed towards our honorable deceased. They also presented our royal priest with kingship gifts though being a deceased person. The staff is magnificent with being generous. The horse carriage, saxophone player and releasing doves contributed to the franchise of eminence associated with Willie A. Watkins co. Our Almighty God and the Heavens were glorified during the Celebration of Life and I am so thankful for Willie A. Watkins and Staff-RIVERDALE!”
