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.

“We met with Jonathan today to make arrangements for my mother. He was knowledgeable, kind, and never pushy. He truly respected our preferences and made a difficult process much easier. The pricing also seemed very fair. We’re grateful for his help.”

“I highly recommend Brown’s Memorial Funeral Home. Hospice arranged my wife’s cremation through a different funeral home in north Dallas but since we live in Irving, we chose Brown’s to hold the memorial service. Gary and the entire staff at Brown’s was very professional and provided us with a beautiful celebration of my wife’s life. She was a quilter and we desired to show some of her work - they did an awesome job with the presentation They have recently updated and renovated the funeral home and it very nice and comfortable. Thank you Gary and staff for helping in our time if need.”
