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
“This is a HIDDEN TREASURE! Mika Davis is really talented! She has that “not ordinary” touch, which is what my family was accustomed to with silk arrangements! The piece for our Mother’s marker was exquisite and loved by so many. Just look at the Mount Vernon Baptist Church, Durham,NC arrangement as an entrance to fall …spectacular! Thank you and see you soon!”
— Paula Stewart
“Patty did an awesome job of putting together a beautiful arrangement for my daughter‘s birthday. She listened to things I said my daughter liked and she ran with it. The flowers are beautiful and fresh. I’ll use her again and again great local florist. Thank you Patti.”
— Renee Olivieri
“I showed up at 3:30 Tuesday afternoon and handed them a giant coffee mug. I told them I needed an arrangement for one of my friend's funeral and they needed to be delivered by 11:00 Wednesday morning. She asked me about my friend and my budget. Needless to say, she created a phenomenal arrangement, and she came in under budget. If you need flowers give them a call. Shop is in an office building on Guess Rd.”
