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
“By far the absolute WORST funeral home experience I’ve ever heard of and/or received. I would NOT recommend this place to my worst enemy. My grandfather passed away in late August of last year, and due to family dynamics, a licensed professional therapist advised us to call the funeral home and request to pay our respects privately and separately. The funeral director told us she had to get “permission” from my other family members to do so, which is crazy to me — our names were in the obituary. We did exactly what a professional and certified LCSW advised us to do. They did not care, and they did not respect our wishes when we asked them not to call and informed them that we would figure it out and contact our family directly, although that was what we were trying to avoid — their conflict and drama. My grandmother passed away in late January, and I had to bury her on my birthday. When my mom called to request a very reasonable accommodation — simply asking for mutual respect in spelling her and my sister-in-law’s names correctly this time — the funeral director said, “Okay, I’ll make note of it, no problem.” She then immediately called the family again. It seems like they just like to stir the pot and cause drama, and that money talks in this place. They are not compassionate, friendly, or professional in the slightest and made an already incredibly difficult situation even more difficult. Legal action for emotional distress is being looked into as we speak because there is absolutely NO sense or reasoning behind this. They’re not running NASA — just their mouths.”

“Greenwood Mount Olivet provided exceptional service and detail to my fathers graveside service. Everything from the planning, flowers, military honors, and sincerity was the best that I have ever seen. Every person that I worked with were so pleasant, professional, and very caring.”
— Demia Hershman
“Mount Olivet is a wonderful place to provide care for your loved one. They are accommodating and assist in every way possible. We had a string quartet play during the graveside services and Mount Olivet provided an added space for them to play. All of it was quite special and I am forever appreciative of their efforts.”
— Christopher Douglas
