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.

“We recently laid my mother-in-law to rest at Westhampton Memorial & Cremation Park where her parents had a plot. She moved away from Virginia years ago and all arrangements had to be made by family members out of state. Katie Allen could not have been more helpful. She proactively provided all necessary information, ensured the family knew what to expect, provided suggestions for consideration regarding an on-site memorial service, helped design the burial marker and was super responsive to all questions. She even provided restaurant recommendations for a post-memorial family lunch. Many thanks to Katie and her colleagues at Westhampton for helping make a difficult time just a little less difficult.”

“Staff is wonderful and very caring. Katie Allen goes above and beyond. She is kind, caring, warm and professional. I am from Ohio and I did not know it was time to clean off flowers, she personally took my flowers and put them on my families 13 graves hersel and took pictures and sent them to me. She didn’t have to do that but she understands family emotions. It was important to me. She also took pictures of my parents grave markers when the were installed as I couldn’t get there. Westhamtom is blessed to have such an outstanding employee. Thank you”

“Many thanks to The staff there at Westhampton memorial Park for helping us to locate the resting place of a loved one. Everyone was super friendly, and very willing to help. We would like to extend kudos, especially, to Katie Allen. We were able to locate the grave after her description of the immediate area and bench close by. We appreciate the time given us the day we visited.”
