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
“I laid my beloved grandmother to rest this past weekend. While it was a sad occasion, the warmth and support of the Guida Funeral Home family helped make the day as comforting as possible. My heartfelt thanks to Tom for making her look so beautiful, and to Mary and Jessica for ensuring every detail was just right. They have been a staple of Corona for as long as I can remember, and they even had a Pictures with Santa this past Christmas, set against a beautiful fireplace in their entry. It made for a wonderful Christmas card that we sent out. Thank you again for everything.”

“Words do not seem enough to describe how thankful we are for Tommy and the crew at Guida. We lost my father suddenly on Christmas night to a 9/11 related illness. Tommy was by our side an hour after we called him and guided us step by step through the next week of grieving and planning. The funeral was a full FDNY honors funeral that Tommy was able to help facilitate with ease. My father recieved an an incredible send off, and a lot of that is because of Tommy and his guys at Guida. My Mother, wife and I were able to grieve and still honor Dad because of how easy planning the arragnemetns were, as well as Tommy's around the clock check in's and care. Thank you again, and again and again.”

“Guida Funeral Home provided a phenomenal service for my father’s arrangements. During such a painful and emotional time, they handled everything with care, professionalism, and compassion. Tom was absolutely amazing. He explained every step clearly, answered all of our questions, and treated our family with so much kindness and respect from begging to end. The casket was the most beautiful I have ever seen. I am grateful that my father was laid to rest with such style and class something he truly deserved. The entire staff made a difficult moment feel a little lighter by ensuring everything was organized, beautiful, and exactly as we hoped. I would recommend Guida Funeral Home to anyone searching for a place to honor their loved one and say a final goodbye. Their service was truly a 10/10. Thank you, Guida Funeral Home!”
