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.
“Do you offer payment plans?”
Many funeral homes allow you to spread the cost over time. Ask about down payments, terms, and financing options.
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
“Thomas Funeral Home was impeccable. I was grief stricken when my mother passed away. My family was unable to attend due to international COVID-19 restrictions. I was alone and heart broken. Mr. Thomas, Deacon Brewer and the staff treated me like family. They made an immensely difficult time easier. People commented how wonderful the staff was at my mother's wake and again at the Church. That is unprecedented. Everything was flawless and reasonably priced. They were a beacon of light during a dark time.”

“This is kind of late since my mom passed in December but I would highly recommend using this company. They were so nice and caring. My mom died suddenly, but not unexpected she had lung cancer. We were in a scramble to figure things out and my dad was absolutely distraught. They were so empathetic and helped us out and made things bearable and it eliminated the stress we had about getting our mom properly taken care of. I would recommend these guys 100% 10/10. Thanks guys for helping my family in our time of need and grief. ❤️”

“It saddens me to write a negative review on Thomas Funeral home but you've got to do better. More and more I hear people say they wouldn't go to Thomas for this reason or that. My experience wasn't the worst, but worth mentioning. The staff was passionate and nice but on the back end, not so good. Service is slow and very unorganized. After numerous calls and 13 weeks later things are complete. We (I) want to see this business remain in our community ....but you got to do better!”
