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
“During one of the most difficult times of our lives, the team at Jerry Spears Funeral home provided comfort, professionalism, and care beyond what we could have hoped for. I especially want to recognize Joy. Joy was patient, kind, and incredibly attentive to every detail. She guided us through the entire process with empathy and grace, making sure our loved one was honored exactly as we envisioned. Her gentle presence made a heartbreaking experience feel just a little bit lighter. She truly cared and even came in on her day off to fill my necklace with my loved ones ashes. The team at this funeral home is amazing.”

“Recently I found myself in circumstances that led me to seek out Funeral and cremation services for my partner of 13 years. My experience with Jerry Spears has by far surpassed my expectations for a Funeral Home. The entire staff has treated me and my family with so much compassion, empathy and understanding. I am forever grateful for the way they have taken one of my hardest situations and made it so much easier. They have taken so much care into helping make arrangements from the smallest of details, to helping make big decisions and assisting with Life Insurance claims. I hope to not be in need of their services again soon, but if I do I know Jerry Spears Funeral Home (West Broad St.) Is where we will be greeted with tissues and a warm smile. Thank you so much.”

“My father-in-law died this year unexpectedly. We are a large immigrant family from Nigeria and had to navigate the process of repatriating his body back home. This funeral home was EXCELLENT in their empathy and communication throughout the entire process. From the beginning, they gave us a very realistic timeline and what to expect with the process. They helped us navigate all the paperwork that needed to be sent off to the various agencies and such. Their prices were more than reasonable as well. I hope it is a very, very long time before I ever need their services again but feel comfortable recommending them to anyone. Especially to a family shipping a body back to Nigeria.”
