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
“Excellent service! Excellent prices! I prepaid my funeral with RFPJ for $2300, which includes: Direct cremation with a service following, special cremation urn, and a one-sentence obituary in the newspaper. Other funeral homes would charge you AT LEAST quadruple the price! Jon Patterson is a very polite and professional funeral director, too.”

“I just want to start by saying I am sorry for taking this long to write this review. I am so glad our family chose Renfro funeral home services for my daughter’s celebration of life service. Mrs Renfro and her team went above and beyond our expectations they were so concerned about our feelings and they made a sad day brighter by accommodating our every wish I have never heard of any funeral home going out of there way like Renfro did for our family. When I think on that day my heart fills lighter because I know my daughter had the best Thank you Mrs Renfro and your team”
— Doreen Booker
“My mother picked Renfro Funeral Services in 1988 to handle her funeral because of the excellent service they gave toward her own mother n father. Now we have found the need for her final services, upon her passing, at age 94. We were shown professionalism, compassion, understanding, patience, and respect from EVERYONE who worked to make our mothers home coming as smooth an experience as possible! The results of all their work would make you think that they all knew her personally! Our family and friends all praised how modern the video, program, and quilt was in contrast to the quiet and warm atmosphere of the actual location. I would give 10 stars if i could! Thank you Gail and your staff..”
