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
“Justin was exceptional as our funeral director for my father’s funeral. During a time of grief, we were so grateful to have someone who was professional and genuine simultaneously. It is evident that Justin truly cares about the families he works with. The funeral was beautiful and perfectly reflected my father and his wishes. We will continue to use Cantelmi-Long for our future family funerals.”

“During one of the most difficult times of our lives, the staff at Cantelmi Long Funeral Home went above and beyond for our family. They were incredibly caring, patient, and respectful throughout the entire process. They helped coordinate military honors for my brother and took the time to explain everything more than once, knowing how overwhelming it all felt. Their compassion, organization, and professionalism made an unbearable situation just a little easier to navigate. We are truly grateful for the dignity and honor they gave my brother and for the kindness they showed our family.”
— Jessica Valdez
“Aubrey is extremely knowledgeable in her field. She guided us, gave us time to reflect on our wishes, gave us options. She is very flexible, met us on a day that she originally took as PTO. That was impressive. She communicated promptly, answered emails and returned phone calls in a timely manner. We felt very comfortable with her. We did not even consider looking elsewhere for our pre-arrangements. We are very satisfied with the services offered thus far and I know we will be in good hands when the time comes.”
