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.

“overall was good until the end , we were promised a service from 4-8 and they cut us short at 7pm , the amount of disrespect towards the family is unbelievable. We had people from out of state arriving at 7pm and still decide to charge us the full amount even though they cut us short. shady wok”

“Saying goodbye to a loved one is never easy. It's even harder when you feel as if your loved one is just another number. That's not the case with Pressley Cares. We were so blessed to have had Mr. Pressley and his family help us through the process. Not once did we feel as if we were an inconvenience, a number. They patiently answered our questions( and with 3 siblings, there can be a lot of questions), they gave us the opportunity to have a private viewing, so many little things that just helped to make this process as easy as it could be given the circumstances. When they say this isn't just a business but a ministry, their actions show exactly that. Mr. Pressley is truly a man of his word and my family was so very blessed to have them take care of our mother during her last moments here. Our cup ran over during our time of grief and a big part of that was because of Pressley Cares. If you are wanting a funeral home that will truly put their heart and soul into taking care of your newly departed, this is the funeral home for you.”
