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.

“The Riemann team is very professional yet caring when it comes to planning and to the actual service itself. Last month my Dad was the third family member that I have entrusted to the Riemann Family. Since he was a WWII veteran it was important to us that some of his military items be displayed at his service. We brought them with us the day of the service and the staff created a lovely display. I think my Dad would have approved.”

“There are no words strong enough to describe the gratitude I have for Riemann Family Funeral Home and especially Jason Green. When I lost both of my parents—first my father, then my mother—Jason was a true light in some of the darkest days of my life. His compassion, professionalism, and quiet strength brought peace to our grieving family when we needed it most. Jason didn’t just provide a service—he provided dignity, comfort, and grace. He treated my parents as if they were his own. Every detail was handled with care, respect, and thoughtfulness, from the planning to the final moments of farewell. His ability to anticipate our needs and be a steady presence in our sorrow meant more than words can say. As someone who served for years as a police officer and worked many honors details, I’ve encountered funeral homes all across the region. None have matched the caliber of service and deep personal care I received from Riemann and Jason Green. To anyone facing the unimaginable loss of a loved one—entrusting them to Riemann and Jason is a decision you will never regret. They are more than professionals—they are a blessing”

“Outstanding service. I was so pleased with everything that Riemann did for our family. Such a difficult time for us and they were able to handle anything we asked. Never had to call and follow-up. They were always there when they said they would. From the time they picked up my husband from our home to the military burial, was nothing but the upmost professionalism. So pleased that we chose Riemann to handle my husband’s funeral.”
