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.

“We had the opportunity to assist Coleman Funeral Home of Oxford with a family needing assistance with services in Florida. Hope Robbins and Cain Havens, both Licensed Funeral Directors and Embalmers, were amazing to work with. Their clear and consistent communication was key for a seamless transition. The family was extremely pleased with the loving care they received. It's refreshing to work with other funeral directors with the same professional vision, level of service, and unwavering compassion. We would proudly work with Hope and Cain again. James and Shannon Curry, Owners/Licensed Funeral Directors”

“Cain, Lane, and Hope took great care of us. Almost literal last minute (2-day) accommodation. Cain guided us through the process, made us feel calm, and made the experience easy. They have a default system to their services which are not set; there’s plenty of freedom and encouragement in how YOU want the service to go. Everyone is professional. If during the visitation, you need to step away, Cain checks in and gives you a discreet out. I also had a last minute alteration to my music. I don’t recommend doing that in general, but it couldn’t have gone smoother. We cremated our mom, but burials and cremations alike are easy. The last thing you need is stress during a time like this. Thank you all for your help! You make a difference.”

“I’m only giving 5 stars because Google won’t let me give more. My family has used Coleman twice now under extremely difficult circumstances and the staff were beyond wonderful. They made what could have been a terrible experience bearable. They truly care for their clients and families, and their aftercare is second to none. I cannot recommend them enough. Mr. Coleman and his staff are truly amazing.”
