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.

“Mr. Hassan and Mr. Crown at the Gate to Heaven Funeral Home were tremendous help to me this past week for my cousin's funeral. These two gentlemen, are very knowledgeable, compassionate, understanding and extremely kind. I found out, in a short notice, I had to transport my cousin's body from Florida to Michigan for Islamic burial and I didn't know anyone or a anyplace to go to. I found them on the internet and contacted them about what I needed. Mr. Hassan and Mr. Crown helped with the entire process and made sure every thing that I needed for the funeral was taken care of. I highly recommend them and if I need any funeral help in the future, they would be the people that I would go to. Thank you Mr. Hassan & Mr. Crown. God bless you! Dr. Sassan Tarahomi”
