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.

— R Leiter
“Steve gave my family the utmost respect in dealing with the death of my WW2 US Marine father. Easy to work with and attentive to detail. My father-in-law passed in November and again nothing but professional treatment from start to finish and worked with my mother in law during her time of grief. Thanks Steve. Highly recommend.”
— Anthony Quickel
