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.
“Do you offer payment plans?”
Many funeral homes allow you to spread the cost over time. Ask about down payments, terms, and financing options.
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
“Kadi was an absolute dream to work with in planning my husband's funeral. The service, which was private, was above and beyond all of my expectations. My husband had this amazing "Don't cry for me, I am with Jesus now" look on his face. I was even sent home with a bouquet of flowers from the floral arrangements in a vase along with one of the bows and "loving husband" ribbons. The service in the chapel was done exactly as my husband had requested before his passing and Kadi even qued up "It Is Well With My Soul" to play at the end of the service. The entire staff made an extremely difficult day so much easier by being so soft spoken and comforting as they interacted with me and those in attendance to my husband's service. My gratitude towards them, before, during and after the service, is beyond words. My husband was well taken care of and is now resting in peace in their beautiful cemetery.”

“I would like to take a moment to truly appreciate how caring Kristina and Chris from the grounds crew have been. It meant the world to me that they fixed my mom and dad’s mausoleum vase. The screws were coming out of the stone and my flowers kept falling out, and they went above and beyond to repair it immediately. Thank you for making me feel seen, valued, and cared for—and for honoring my loved ones in such a meaningful way. Sincerely, Jeanne”
— Jeanne Kennedy
“I highly recommend Jefferson Memorial Funeral Home. The staff of Jefferson Memorial was very respectful and compassionate with the sudden loss of my husband. We specifically worked with Jason Catalfu who was extremely professional and took time to explain details of their services. Thank you for being thoughtful and caring during this difficult time.”
