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 first came to know Jonathan Fisher and his wonderful staff when I worked for the Township; they helped us take care of the poor of this county with respect and grace. When my mother lay dying last week, there was only one funeral home I had in mind. When they said they would pick her up and bring her back to Lafayette, it was such a relief to know she would be in their care. Every interaction we have had since has been kind and caring. I would give them 100 stars if I could. Your loved ones will be safe with them; they are a blessing to this community!”
— Trisha F
“I worked at a local cemetery a few years ago and there were times I would need to work with Fishers. They always were respectful, considerate, and caring to the families and even to me. With that being said, my grandma passed away. Her boyfriend is a very difficult man. He has harassed the hospital she passed away at, harassed and threatened multiple family members and has even been very disrespectful towards Fishers during this process. They have been nothing but understanding and considerate during this difficult time and I appreciate the effort and support they have provided to my family. He recently left a very negative review that is inaccurate and hopefully this can help bring clarity to anybody who sees it. Thank you to everyone at Fishers for their commitment and making our difficult time a little bit easier.”
— Lexxis Roberts
“I had the pleasure of working with Johnathan and his staff about a year ago, when we had a death in the family. I found him to be extremely pleasant and helpful, and provided expert services. I highly recommend the Fisher Funeral Chapel.”
