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
“I love the architecture of this parish. Very well organized, cozy and people are nice. Has a really welcoming atmosphere. A small library on the hallway heading to the church. Feels like home inside a parish complex.”
— Anne Chin
“This is a non traditional church in the round. The building is very large but pretty with a huge pipe organ! The Tabernacle is in the chapel which is behind clear glass framed wall. Nice chapel. The Narthex is very welcoming and huge, including a good library in the hall way. Nice bathrooms. They had confessions before mass!”
— Donna Latteri
“We're new to Williamsburg and looking for a church to attend. About a month ago, we attended a service, and everything was fine. Our two-year-old was getting bored, so my husband took her out. After the service, my husband informed me that our daughter was crying because the woman in charge of the children's room wouldn't let her play with other children. She was very rude to my husband and daughter. Our daughter is only two years old. The woman demonstrated poor Christian values. Her behavior was very strange and unbecoming of someone caring for children. Since then, we have never attended that church again.”
— Karolina Artwińska
