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.
“Do you offer payment plans?”
Many funeral homes allow you to spread the cost over time. Ask about down payments, terms, and financing options.
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.

— Mike Lang
“Malone Funeral Home provides the highest level of compassion and assistance when going through one of the most difficult times one would go through. Every family member and employee we have worked with through Malone have been beyond helpful and kind. My family has used Malone Funeral Home for various family member’s wakes and funerals and would highly recommend them to anyone. They are extremely professional, easy to talk to, and provide amazing guidance every step of the way. I couldn’t imagine utilizing any other funeral home in the area after using Malone’s.”
— Joseph Russo
“A family run business that provided an incredible service to our Mom and family during one of our most challenging times. Dennis and Dan’s approach to our Mom’s funeral reflected great care, compassion, and tone that guided our family through process. They both listened intently to our needs, offered sound advice, and created an environment at the viewing and funeral that pleased our family but was also spiritual. No detail was too small for them to handle and everything was executed with white glove service that made a hard day memorable for my family. I can not speak enough about the quality that both Dennis and Dan represent as people. They truly care about people and families during their lowest point by providing compassion and understanding. And the funeral home is absolutely well done. Thank you to the entire Malone team who balanced all the needs of our family with great care and the right touch.”
