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.

“Freyvogel funeral home did an excellent job with my father. They covered every little detail and helped out with everything. Very personalized. There was not one thing, remissed in their service! Everyone was commenting how well they captured my fathers spirit. A+++”

“Our family recently experienced an unexpected loss of a family member. The Freyvogal brothers were incredibly caring, professional, compassionate and thorough. They anticipated our needs and treated us with so much care at such a difficult time. Our family HIGHLY recommends Freyvogel Funeral Home.”
— Deanna Home
“My parents have known the Freyvogel family for years. The parents and the sons. My parents always insisted Freyvogel was to do their funerals. My parents have their plans --and then time came when my father passed. I made the call a bit after midnight--extremely kind, understanding, and professional from start to finish. They took care of everything--sat with them the next day to finalize. I would never go elsewhere for our family. They truly care about your needs/wants. They are a family business and they treated us like family.”
