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.
“Do you offer payment plans?”
Many funeral homes allow you to spread the cost over time. Ask about down payments, terms, and financing options.
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.

“We all experience many difficult times in our lives and losing a parent is one of the worst. Tyler and the staff at church did an amazing job In helping our family make decisions and find the best option for us. Someone was there to answer the phone even at 3 o’clock in the morning and they stayed with us in constant communication even until today. I highly recommend this exceptional, professional, loving facility to help guide you through your most difficult times. thank you so much to each and every one of you for being so caring throughout..”

“There truly aren’t enough words to describe the level of care, compassion, and professionalism we experienced with Church Funeral Services. Despite the unimaginable circumstances of losing my brother, Andrew, they made the entire process as seamless and comforting as possible. Every person we encountered was incredibly kind-hearted, understanding, and generous with their time and support. We had the pleasure of working closely with Tyler, who handled everything with such grace and empathy, and Lori from Aftercare, who continues to be a guiding light through the healing process. Both were absolute angels—helping us navigate every detail and taking so much off of our plate when we needed it most. I will forever be grateful for the way they treated our family—with dignity, compassion, and genuine care. Church Funeral Services went above and beyond, and I can’t thank them enough for walking beside us during such a difficult time.”
