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
“Burns-Kish Funeral Home Review - January, 2026 In a time of excessive stress after the death of a loved family member - Emily and everyone else at Burns-Kish were responsive to our needs, they efficiently explained their services, they provided communications with the cemetery and they guided my family through our challenging time. They were kind, considerate and appropriately respectful. Sadly, in today’s world - You often do not receive services or goods as marketed. Our Burns-Kish experience was a bright spot in a week of many disappointments The services that my family received were understood, provided beyond expectation and adjusted as needed. Without any doubt, we would highly recommend Burns-Kish when you are in need. The Burns-Kish building and facilities, inside and out, are impeccable. Thank You Emily and everyone at Burns-Kish, for being there for us. The Fairfield family.”

“We recently had our mother’s service at Burns-Kish Funeral Home. The services were done with so much care and kindness. Lorraine was wonderful in helping us get all the details in place. On the day of the funeral, Lorraine and Apollo helped make a difficult day for us, run very smoothly. Our family is very grateful. We also had our father’s funeral here 5 years ago. We had the same experience then as well. Thank you!”

“From the moment we first reached out, the team at Burns-Kish Funeral Homes was incredibly attentive and compassionate. They were responsive to every question, no matter how small, and went above and beyond to make our family feel at home and at ease during such a difficult time. The facility itself is beautiful, warm, peaceful, and thoughtfully designed to provide comfort. Every detail, from the décor to the service arrangements, was handled with such care and meaning. It was clear that the staff truly understand how important these moments are, and they took the time to personalize everything to reflect our loved one’s life. What really stood out was their professionalism and genuine kindness. We never felt rushed or pressured, only supported. The entire process was seamless and dignified, and we are so grateful for the guidance and compassion we received. If you’re looking for a funeral home that treats your family like their own and honors your loved one with respect, grace, and attention to detail, I cannot recommend Burns-Kish Funeral Homes highly enough.”
