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.

“Please stop hosting biker ceremonies if the patrons are going to show up hundreds of bikes deep and shut down the street for an extended period of time to slowly park. Kindly advise them to pick a more suited avenue for their cringe antics.”

“A wonderful place that took very good care of my family during our service. We had one hiccup that was completely human error and forgivable, the thing that kept my review 5 stars is that Gray's made it right when we brought the problem to their attention. Very lovely people and a beautiful facility, I truly am grateful for them.”
— Ashley Garrison
