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
“Wayne, Tom, Eric, and the staff at Colonial are incredible. They are professional, compassionate, and detailed oriented. Wayne listened and addressed all my mother’s wishes and concerns in planning my father’s funeral. He then executed everything perfectly. In a difficult time- everyone needs a Wayne in their corner.”
— Kera Mentone
“I assisted my mother in law with planning my father in law’s funeral. We were expecting it to be quite the challenge, running around all day for several days in advance to check everything off the list. Eric and the team at Colonial Funeral Homes took care of nearly everything; after one 30 minute appointment everything was done aside from printing out personal photos to put around the room. Not only did they make the planning easy, but on the day of the team at the funeral home were amazing. They were very kind, caring, and attentive to our family’s needs. They were there to advocate for us and guide us every step of the way. I couldn’t recommend this funeral home more. Having that said- hopefully my family won’t be seeing them again anytime soon. Thank you to Eric and the team for such a stress free and lovely funeral service. You all went above and beyond for us.”
— Courtney K
“Planning end of life services is never fun but Eric made the process easy and convenient after a long couple of difficult weeks as our mother passed in hospice care. He responded quickly to our call, set up an appointment right away and heard us out on exactly what we wanted. So Thankful we chose Colonial and Eric's help.”
