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.

“During the passing of our mother, Bill DeBerry Funeral Home treated our family with incredible compassion and respect. From the first phone call to the final service, they guided us with steady professionalism and heartfelt kindness. In the midst of grief, they helped us feel calm, supported, and confident that everything was handled with care. We are deeply thankful for the dignity they showed our mom and the comfort they brought to our family.”

“My brother, sister and I dealt with Bill DeBerry himself through out our journey. This was a first for the three of us. Mr. DeBerry was very understanding and had great patience with us. Our dad had passed 10 years ago but our stepmom did all the arrangements so this was something new to us. My sister and I have both lost our husbands but there were children involved in making decisions. Man I never knew how hard it would be to get three adults to agree on things but we did it and everything turned out wonderful. Our mom looked beautiful and it looked like any moment she would wake up and ask what was going on. They did a wonderful job on her. Thank you to everyone involved in helping our mom have the perfect funeral. Special thanks to Bill DeBerry.”

“I would like to express my deepest appreciation to DeBerry Funeral Directors for the incredible services they provided to me and my family during our time of need. From the moment I chose them until the very end, it seemed as if they held my hand every step of the way. With the help of Justin DeBerry, we were able to make our Celebration very personal to my husband. I feel it was a “real” celebration of his life, thanks to Justin.”
