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.

“I called an emailed a lot of places. Reflections Memorial called and emailed back. There was a communication error. That's what I'm calling it. Between Management and Staff maybe even me about charges. The Reflections team handled it. What seemed to be was going to be a problem in my time of mourning was handled with a hand shake and a signature. Thank you Reflections Memorial Services LLC”

“Reflections was recommended to me by the wonderful hospice nurse that was there when my Mama passed. Josh contacted me the same day (Sunday) to set up a day/time/method for paperwork completion. He was kind and gentle, offering email via docusign for my convenience. I was able to select how many Death Certificates I needed and they helped me along the way. The cremation was VERY affordable compared to everywhere else we looked, as this was not expected and there were not many resources left behind. They were done within a week. I spoke to Jake; who listened kindly as I blabbed on and on about my loved one and was very patient and receptive, when he called to tell me she was ready. Pick up was quick and easy. When I went in to pick her up, their Urns and other keepsake containers were BEAUTIFUL! Highly recommend.”

“I picked my wife’s ashes up today. She was a pastor and her death was unexpected. I used to be a pastor as well, so I have experience working with funeral homes. I found Joshua Dukes and his staff exceptionally kind to work with. The website provided clear and accurate information. The assistance was compassionate. There was no pressure to upsell. Katherine Fuller was able to quickly update the obituary when requested. In the midst of open grief I could not have found a better team to interact with in the midst of my grief.”
