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.

“My two sisters and I were up visiting our parents. A nice man came in spoke with us about the upcoming cleanup that’s going to happen. Ken was very kind and listened to our suggestions and made us feel better about our parents being buried there.”

“We have around 9 spaces in Faith Garden. I would like to thank Audrey Sprayberry for explaining to me the importance of being prepared in such a loving and kind way as to not push anything on me I didn’t need also. I’m one of two who places flowers for Christmas, Easter and Fall. I also have my space there she sold to me years ago and now has encouraged me to purchase my marker. I feel good knowing when The Lord takes me home my family will not have this extra expense, it will already be taken care of. Thanks again Audrey for always being there for our family. You’re truly a God send.”
— Brenda Waters
