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
“My mother passed away without leaving clear instructions for her burial and with very limited life insurance to cover the expenses. I contacted several funeral homes, and while most were polite and informative, Davis–Little was the only one that truly felt like they were helping me, not just trying to get my business. I’m so grateful my best friend recommended them. My first contacts were with Melanie and Phil, and I cannot express how wonderful they were. Losing someone you love is one of the hardest things you’ll ever face, and they somehow made the entire process feel manageable. They were patient, compassionate, and on top of every detail. I honestly don’t know what I would have done without their guidance. Every staff member we encountered was polite, helpful, and beyond gracious. Because of them, I was able to give my mom a beautiful farewell that stayed within the budget of her life insurance. Everyone commented on how lovely her casket and service were. I had worried that choosing the Davis–Little burial package would mean settling for something that looked inexpensive, but that was absolutely not the case. Their catalog had many options, all of which looked high-quality and dignified. If you’re reading funeral home reviews right now, I’m truly sorry—you’re likely going through something painful, and my heart goes out to you. But I can say without hesitation that Davis–Little deserves more than the five stars Google allows. If you want a funeral home that is compassionate, reasonably priced, and genuinely committed to helping you through every step of the process, you are in the right place.”
— Because Wendy Says So
“Davis Little funeral home did an exceptional job with my mother in law's cremation and visitation. They took care of every detail with empathy, grace and humor at the right time. They made us feel as at ease as you can during a time like this. Melanie and Sarah were available whenever we had a question, or a concern. I don't think we could've asked for this process to go any smoother, or easier. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for helping us with this hard time.”
— Shannon Armstrong
“The death of my husband was tragic and sudden. I was so lost. Melanie walked me through each and every step with patience and graciousness. I couldn't have found a better person or place to help me with all of this.”
— Lisa Pendergrass
