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.

“They spend most of the time promoting programs by having the laity step up to the podium. Everything feels centered on the people. I literally asked myself during Mass at one point, "where is Jesus?" There is nothing Christ-like about Mass when it is all about promotions, or priests who talk more than they pray”

“Some call Holy Faith the “heart of Gainesville” and I would extend that just a tad farther —in that this lovely church feels like our home. Welcoming priests and parishioners are ever-present. Plenty of opportunities for volunteering and connecting with other Catholics. The pews are full every weekend. What else can I say?”
