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.

“I cannot praise sufficiently, here, the incredibly supportive team, led by Ms. Elysia Smith, at Frank E. Campbell for their outstanding work in providing a beautiful and honorable service for my husband. The excellent team led by Ms. Smith made possible a service with military honors for my husband that we will hold in our hearts forever. The attention to every detail by Ms. Smith and her superlative team of professionals eased our grieving at every turn, and I and my family will never forget their kindness, sensitivity and caring from start to finish. We will always remember the benevolence extended to us. It comforts us now and in the immediate days ahead, but it will sustain us immeasurably through the future. MaryAnn Inkeles”

“My experience at Frank E. Campbell - The Funeral Chapel was wonderful from the very beginning. Our funeral director, Elysia, was kind, caring and compassionate. I felt very comfortable from the first time we met. She helped me plan my son's arrangements and Celebration of Life in a loving way. She was open to any ideas or questions I had and made everything easy for me. I was involved in every step and his celebration was organized so beautifully. Thank you for making a difficult time something I will cherish forever.”

“Absolutely the worst experience I've had. My uncle died recently and I flew up on the same day to go to his funeral. Started at 5 in the morning and got there when I found out my flight was cancelled. When we got to the funeral home, the person in the front made me feel like I was some riff raff off the street. When I asked about the guest book, I was told it was up stairs and when I approached the stairs, I almost got tackled to the ground by the woman stating "Only family is allowed up stairs". The sad part is my cousin was there and she said the same thing occurred to her when she asked about the sign in book and she's much better looking than me, so most likely that person in the front was just an abrupt rude and uncaring person for others. I wish I would have gotten her name to place it here now. If your loved one dies, trust me, don't take them to this place, go bury them in the back yard, you'll get more satisfaction then taking it to a cold hearted, ugly place that this chapel is.”
