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.

What Families Say
“TL;DR J. Cole might have shouted out this place… I have attended this funeral here 3+ years ago, and actually liked the service, where I was in attendance for a family friend. It’s among the few places where traffic isn’t as insane to where it’s easier to navigate to the nearby cemeteries since it’s basically a straight-shot to any of the nearest ones. However, I’m only now coming back leaving a review because J. Cole’s latest song mentioned this particular Funeral Home in his latest album release and I recognized the description. (not confirmed, but it definitely fits the description). As per the reference from the song its from the song: “Safety”. As quote: “Its that funeral home off the Murch, the one that’s chained to the used car lot where I got that ford escape””
