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 secretary here is so nice. My dad’s wife passed away a few weeks ago and he still talks about how she told him something she went thru that was similar to his situation. It really helped him feel like she was well taken care of and like she really cared about her and understood what hes dealing with. Thanks to her and the whole staff we seen here for being so kind and treating us like we were family.”

“From the beginning David was there for me.. Every detail I wanted he did his best to accommodate everyone of them.. after I made the arrangements with him he let me sit alone with my mom so I could tell her everything that was going to happen. It was at Christmas time so things were hard to get but if he could get them he did!! I wanted a christmas tree with blue lights for my mom he had it there when the time came to visit! When I walked in there was a gorgeous picture of my mom just looking back at me and a candle that I had no idea would be there as well as a blanket..those little touches made me more comfortable to be there and made me feel like my mom was watching me holding me up when all I wanted to do was crumble…I truly can’t say enough about David and all the staff at Kingwood funeral home. I hope I never deal with them again but I mean that in the kindest most sincere way possible. I would tell everyone to go to them with your family’s last wishes sooner than later to help that time be as easy as possible and in case you want that something special and it needs to be ordered so you get it in time!”

“Kingwood funeral home was so wonderful to me during the time of me losing my daughter. Not only are they kind and compassionate but they went above and beyond to help me through the worst time of my life. Not only during the service but they even checked in on me afterwards and it meant a lot to me that my daughter was not just a job for them.”
