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 first had contact with Lifesong in 2020 when they handled my Mother's cremation. I was extremely happy with their handling of the whole process. I recently set up a prepaid cremation plan for myself. Sara was very pleasant, and answered all my questions. It was a very painless process!! I would highly recommend Lifesong to handle all their funeral needs.”

“This was my second time in five years that Lifesong has taken care of arrangements. I would go nowhere else! Professionalism, efficiency, customer service, accuracy, caring, and affordable. Recently I worked with Belinda and she went the extra mile in shipping remains to my family’s ancestral cemetery in Pennsylvania so that it would be there and all arranged when I arrived. The other employees that I worked with were equally amazing, including the owners! With Lifesong, they made a difficult time in my life better. Thank you, Lifesong!”
