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.

“They honored my niece and supported our family with grace. Our family will forever be grateful for the compassion and care shown to us by everyone at Tippecanoe Memory Gardens. During the most painful time of our lives, they treated us like family and made sure my sister felt supported and comforted in every possible way. Every detail of my niece’s service was handled with tenderness, respect, and genuine love. Shelly, Travis, and the entire team showed us kindness and understanding that we will never forget. Their compassion brought peace to our heartbreak, and for that, we are truly thankful.”

“Losing a parent at any age is never easy and one of the hardest parts of life. I will forever be thankful and grateful to Anna for all of her help, kind words, and going above and beyond for my family. She not only helped with arrangements and burial, she has also gone above and beyond with advice and resources to help our family in our greatest time of need. Thank you so much for everything you have done for us Anna.”
— Danielle DeLancy
“Erin was amazing during the process of my Dads burial. She was there for us during every hard step. The financial worker was very rude, when someone is going through a hard time this is the last thing we needed. My dad’s memorial plate for his grave placed by a staff member (not Erin!) was on the wrong grave! For 2 weeks until a family member tried looking for it. It was placed in an entirely different garden. Did we get an apology? No. Erin thank you for all your work and love during this process. To the other staff members shame on you during one of someone’s hardest days.”
