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.

“I just want to put out a very positive feedback for funeral director Tom Luzod at Holy Sepulchre Cemetery in Hayward. When your loved one passes, its hard times, Tom went above and beyond to help make that time easier. He truly has a gift of great intuition to make your loved ones services personal and perfect. My brother and I don't have the words to thank him enough. It wasn't just about money, he helped make it a personal experience. Thank you again Tom. God be with you.”

“Don't remember if I ever posted a review prior to today but I am doing so now after reading a single negative review ... In 1971 my mother buried my father there using his military headstone, my nephew in 1995, 5 years ago 2013 I buried my mother there ... She had made all of her arrangements ahead of time with them so when the time came it was so much easier to get things taken care of. We purchased a new headstone in order to have both my mother and fathers pictures put on it ... They came out beautiful .... 2 years ago we buried my father in law and 1 year ago my mother in law ... Each time we were given the upmost service from both mortuary and cemetery staff .... My husband and I have even purchased our plot in advance to not leave our children burdened in anyway .... Staff is compassionate and knowledgeable.... Thank you all so much .... Have recommended them on several occasions and will continue to do so ....”
