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
“We recently laid my mom to rest using their services. Steve was a god send. He took us through the entire process ahead of time like a true professional. He really put all of us family at ease by handling all the details. The selected preacher met with us, heard all the stories of my mom’s life and put together an excellent eulogy. The chapel service, escorted prosessional to the cemetery and the grave site service was perfect with out problem. They even took care to have my mom’s hair done like she always liked it. Highly recommend.”
