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
“Grissom-Clark Funeral was amazing. During this very difficult time, they were very welcoming, professional and treated us like we were part of their family. I have nothing but great things to say about them. I highly recommend them.”
— Alicia Powell
“The folks at Grissom-Clark are truly wonderful! We did my Mom’s Celebration of Life there this past weekend and they did an amazing job. Ms. Veneka Williams was our funeral director and she was kind thoughtful and very honest. I didn’t know what to expect or do and she was our guiding light. The day of the service the pastor backed out and I was going to have to do it myself. Veneka and her partner, I think his name was Roland. Stepped in and handled everything for us. They were the blessing we needed in our darkest time. Thank you ❤️.”
