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.

What Families Say
“This funeral home was outstanding, taking care of our family with the passing of our loved one. The Reverend Katherine Dougherty was an excellent loving minister. This beautiful set of flowers melted lots of hearts at my nephews funeral. If you look close, you can see 4 items I purchased that represented my nephew (46) throughout his life, a fish, a silver gun, guitar, and a bike. All the things he loved to do. I had it made at King William Florist, where the designers are truly gifted. I want to thank everyone for taking good care of my nephew and us.”

“I am very grateful that Bennett Funeral Home gave me the opportunity to perform for Mr. Nicholas Fisher's funeral. They also provided quality service with welcoming kindness, generosity and support during the Homegoing Service. Thanks again.”
— Jereffa Fleming
“I cannot be more pleased with the kind service we received from Bennett. In a world where the funeral industry has gone corporate, they have a small-town, personal atmosphere. Prices were clearly explained, no "sales pitch", and the accommodated our short-notice schedule since we were coming from out of town. Thank you Andrew Morehead and your dad for your kind attention!”
— Sally Jean Moore
