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
“Doty Nash's professionalism and expertise gave my family comfort and confidence as they provided services to the KING family during our most vulnerable time. Vera Hudson and Keith Robinsin were amazing to work with.”

“I had services for my mom Sept 16, 2023. She was on hospice so I knew the end was coming, so I did my research of funeral homes prior, to be prepared when the time came and I’m a stickler for reading reviews. So when the time came I had made my choice immediately. When I tell you Doty Nash funeral home did NOT disappoint. Marcus and Vera were so professional, kind and overall good hearted individuals and handled my mom’s services seamlessly and she was beautiful as always. I appreciate you guys for making one of the saddest moments of my life a little better by doing an amazing job. Blessings to you both. Sincerely, Shanise Morton Sefewu and family”

“My father passed away on 5/12/23. It is a very difficult time to handle someone’s final wishes, while mourning their absence. Marcus and the staff at Doty Nash was very helpful and very respectful. He helped us with all of the funeral services and everything was exceptional. If you need help with the loss of a love one, I highly recommend Doty Nash Funeral Home to ensure they are properly laid to rest.”
