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 would like to extend my deepest gratitude to Whites Funeral Home for the exceptional care and compassion shown to me and my family. From the moment we walked through the doors, you made us feel like family. Every person we encountered treated us with kindness, patience, and genuine concern, and it meant more than words can express. You did a beautiful job with my father — he looked so peaceful, as though he were simply sleeping. That brought us a great deal of comfort during an incredibly difficult time. Whenever we were unsure of something, you guided us with clarity and grace. You made a process we feared would be overwhelming feel seamless and supported. A heartfelt thank you to Mr. and Mrs. White for your dedication, your professionalism, and the love you pour into your work. My family will never forget the care you provided during one of the hardest moments of our lives.”

“We want to thank White’s Funeral and cremation Services for providing an amazing home going service for my mother. The visuals were great. The music was placed with the pictures exceptionally well. She looked amazing, from her hair, nails, and dress. Your staff did a great job directing people, adding the live stream, and with ending the service. We appreciate the amount of time and patience you put into the preparation for the service. My mother would have been proud.”

“I recently had the experience of working with Whites Funeral Home for my grandmother's funeral, and I cannot express enough how impressed I was with their outstanding service. From the initial consultation to the final farewell, their team demonstrated exceptional care, compassion, and professionalism. What truly set them apart was their hands-on approach and genuine engagement throughout the entire process by the Director and Owners. They took the time to understand our family's needs and wishes, offering personalized support and guidance every step of the way. Their attention to detail and thoughtful considerations made a difficult time much more manageable and comforting. The arrangements were beautifully handled, and the staff's warmth and dedication were evident. I am deeply grateful for their support and highly recommend Whites Funeral Home to anyone seeking a compassionate and meticulous team during such a sensitive time. Thank you again! The Brown Family”
