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
“It is kinda hard to rate a funeral home. I have had to attend many funerals here over the years. People were very nice and place very clean. They do their job well. Update. I am moving into the age where my generation is moving on and must attend the funeral of too many friends. Just attended another. This virus has changed many things including funerals. Browns Funeral Home has done all they can to adapt to the many changes. They perform their business with all the dignity and respect for the family's that have lost loved ones. It's not just a job to them but an honor that they take to heart. Thank you for all you do during these trying times.”
— Tommy Bridge
“I wanted to give a BIG thank you to Jordan Fields for going above and beyond his duty during my husband's passing. Yes, the funeral home staff did make a mistake, but I truly felt Jordan's heart and soul in is ability to try and rectify the mistake. That is why I am not giving a 5 star. Jordan gets a 5 star! Jordan could not fix the mistake but he tried for two days to. Jordan well compensated our family and delivered the benefit himself. What a true blessing this was. Thank for trying to correct a mistake.”
