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.

“Mr. Ward and his staff were absolutely amazing! They allowed us to plan our father's service from Texas and everything turned out beautifully. This was our first time planning a funeral and Mr. Ward walked us through the process step by step. He was very kind, patient and knowledgeable! He took care of every detail, even the things we didn't think about. He lightened our load during our time of sorrow and we are most appreciative. Mr. Ward is very professional, everything was handled in a timely manner. He answered every call and text immediately. We were blessed to have him and his staff by our side every step of the way. Thank you, Winnfield!”
