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.
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.

“The staff at Davis Funeral Home was amazing. They were very knowledgeable and answered all of our questions promptly. I appreciate everything they did for me and my family. I still have family in the area and would be more than happy to ask them to help my family get through some difficult times if I would need them in the future. I highly recommend them to anyone who may need them in a different time as losing a loved one.”
— Tammy Bowers
“My review is about a year late, but I figured it’s never a bad time to share a positive experience. My grandfather passed away last year, and Davis was wonderful to my family and I. They were very accommodating to all of our needs (including our religious needs), and wants. They recognized that several family members would be traveling from out of state, and would want to see him before he was laid to rest. They made the process very easy for my grandmother who was grieving the loss. Day of services, everyone was so kind and welcoming to us and the services, and location were beautiful. My grandpa looked very handsome too, and I appreciated that a lot. Thank you to all the staff at Davis for taking care of my family and I!!”
