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
“Divine Mercy Funeral Home went far beyond what we ever expected during a hard time in our lives. From the very first conversation, to the entire staff treating our family with such compassion, patience, and genuine care. Every detail of my father’s arrangements was handled beautifully and respectfully. They took the time to listen, explain everything clearly, and made sure nothing felt rushed or overwhelming. What could have been an incredibly stressful process felt calm and supported because of them. It was clear that this wasn’t “just a job” to them — they truly cared about honoring my dad and supporting our family. We will forever be grateful for how thoughtfully and lovingly they handled everything. I cannot recommend Divine Mercy Funeral Home enough to families who want to feel cared for, respected, and truly supported during their time of need.”
