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.
“Do you offer payment plans?”
Many funeral homes allow you to spread the cost over time. Ask about down payments, terms, and financing options.
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 L.J. Griffin in Canton are truly kind and compassionate people. I lost my daughter on 6/2/25 in a roll over accident at the young age of 20. Given the circumstances, it was a very beautiful service. Beth is literally one of the most sweetest, kind, selfless, understanding woman that I have ever met. It was definitely a God wink that my family and I worked with her thru this devastating process. She made sure that everything that I wanted happened. We did everything all in one stop. They had everything we needed, From the flowers to the food. The funeral home is well kept. It is very clean. The chapel is beautiful. They even made candle holders with a candle with my daughter’s picture on it. Thank you Beth and the entire staff at L.J. Griffin 🩷”
