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
“A Truly Compassionate and Professional Funeral Home Words cannot fully express the gratitude my family and I feel for the outstanding service we received from this funeral home during one of the most difficult times in our lives. From beginning to end, Cedric’s team showed the utmost professionalism, compassion and care—treating our beloved mother as if she were their own. A very special thank you to Cedric, Mike, Tammy Arnest and all the incredible staff. Each one of you went above and beyond to ensure everything was handled with dignity, grace, and respect. Your warmth and attention to detail provided us with peace of mind when we needed it most. Losing a loved one is never easy, but having a team like this by your side makes all the difference. We are forever grateful for the way you honored our mother and supported our family. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts. The Webb Family”
