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
“We cannot say enough wonderful things about Mark Ely and the entire team at Tobias Funeral Home. Mark handled both my mother’s (Feb 2025) and my father’s (Jan 2026) services & My Son’s service (July 2018), and in three of the most difficult seasons of our lives, he was steady, compassionate, and absolutely exceptional. From the smallest details to the biggest decisions, Mark walked us through everything with patience, dignity, and genuine care. He didn’t just “do his job” — he treated our family like his own. Every question was answered, every request was honored, and every detail was handled flawlessly. Planning a funeral is never easy, but Mark and the staff at Tobias made it as peaceful and seamless as possible. Their professionalism, kindness, and respect meant more to us than words can express. If you are looking for someone you can trust completely during one of life’s hardest moments, I wholeheartedly recommend Mark Ely and Tobias Funeral Home. They are truly exceptional people.”
