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
“Kent and Sarah were incredibly kind and supportive in helping us create a beautiful service for my mother. She looked amazing, and they guided our family through the traditions with care, ensuring every detail was thoughtfully handled. Their patience, dedication, and respect for our wishes meant so much to us during this difficult time.”
— Amanpreet Kaur
“My family & I used Wages & Sons’ crematory services for our baby boy back in 2012. The love & support we received back then was unmatched. I recently lost my mother and I opted to use their services again because of how well we were treated. As soon as I made the call to Wages & Sons, Kent, the head funeral director, was top-notch. Might I add, he’s a breathe of fresh air while coping with the loss of a loved one. Kent & his awesome team (Monica & Theresa) jumped into action quickly. They told me not to worry and to simply relax they’ll take it from there. All I had to do was call the hospital and inform them to call Wages. My Mom was picked up same day so when I saw her, she still looked so good! Looked as if she was sound asleep. We had my Mom a Celebration of Life with crematory services and repast. Wages offered live streaming, full sound system, microphones, & PowerPoint slideshow of photos during the services. This was such a sweet addition. Wages is not only a Funeral Home/Crematory, they have become our extended family. Because they make you feel like family and they soften the blow of the pain of losing a loved one. Thank you so much Stone Mountain Chapel Team!!”

“Writing this review is difficult, but I feel compelled to share my high recommendation for Wages & Sons Funeral Homes and Crematories. The entire staff was truly kind and respectful during a very painful time. I want to specifically commend Teresa and Kent. They both went out of their way to ensure every detail went smoothly. I had specific, sensitive requests regarding my mother's ashes, and they handled everything with exceptional organization and care. Their attention to detail was flawless. While using a funeral home is never easy, they provided a necessary and appreciated small amount of comfort and professionalism. Thank you for making a hard time a bit easier to navigate.”
