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.

“My wife recently passed after a long illness. So many emotions after, I was literally in a fog. I had no idea what had to be done. I can’t say enough positive things about Snyder Funeral Homes, and particularly Jason. I was led step by step through this process with compassion and respect and kindness. And they continue to reach out, weeks after her passing. Everything was top notch. I highly recommend them.”
— Kevin Peck
“I have personally planned and attended 2 funeral or memorial services at the Snyder Funeral Homes Lasater Chapel, in Mt. Vernon, Ohio. My mother’s funeral service was held there in 2017 and I have wonderful memories of the beautiful chapel with easy access in and plenty o parking. So this year when I had to arrange a memorial service for my brother, I knew I wanted to return to the Lasater Chapel. It is a beautiful space with seating for many, is easily accessible for people with mobility issues, and they are very helpful in providing any last minute items that a family might require. The Lasater people are very kind, respectful, and very helpful in planning the service and anticipating every need.”
