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.

What Families Say
“, I just wanted to personally thank Vanessa for taking such excellent care of my dad’s burial services. Everything was flawless and went smoothly, and her guidance made the paperwork and process feel so much easier during a very difficult time. Her presence at the gravesite meant more to me than I can express. Vanessa’s condolences, kindness, and even the hug she gave me brought real comfort. Thank you as well for providing and for making sure we had what we needed, even before we knew to ask. Vanessa was truly exceptional, and I am deeply grateful for her compassion and professionalism.”

“Horrible! Purchased Valentine’s Day flowers for my mom‘s tombstone and had a flower arrangement made for the top of the tombstone. February 14, 2025. Went back March 10, 2025 and everything is gone from my mother‘s tombstone. Called the office and all they could tell me was they have to take out everything that’s holiday. Nothing there said it was holiday. It was just roses. I asked who can I talk to as far as manager and they said no one‘s available. Unbelievable. If this was their parent, their loved one their hard earned money that they used to decorate the tombstone. I don’t think that this would be resolved very nicely, but I’m doing my best so I’m letting everybody know the public”

“I want to thank the young man that helped me find closure on finding my great grandmother’s grave. I cried of joy. Thank you Andres Garza for helping me find her. The whole staff of Hillcrest smiled at me when they heard of my excitement. I totally recommend this cemetery and the perpetual care they provide. The cemetery was clean and trying to keep it as green as possible considering the hot and dry weather of South Texas. Once again thank you Hillcrest Memorial for your accurate records.”
