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.

“My family and I received the best quality of service from Mariah, Paloma and Karen. Everything was perfect. They made this experience very easy. The communication was constant. Everyone was friendly and professional. They listened to every want and need. My Mothers service was absolutely breathtaking and so beautiful. I was unsure if I wanted an open casket but they made my mom absolutely beautiful. We were all so grateful for that. The service was beyond our expectations. We received so many compliments. Considering this was one of my most challenging duties in my life it really brought me so much peace and joy knowing that our mom was taken care of with such grace and compassion.”

“I’ve always been the one to attend funeral services here so I never had to experience the other side of it, until recently. When my father passed, we decided quickly that DeYoung would take him into care. Since the start of the process they were responsive, respectful and did very well at explaining the breakdown of pricing. We were very sure about our needs and they never pushed us into buying something extra. When we decided to have a service at the church, they even coordinated that. It was a very simple and peaceful experience working with Alicia. I highly recommend that you choose DeYoung.”

“So many caring and supportive things the team did that let me feel so much care! I can’t name them all, although the one that touched me the most was the laminated book marks with my journal entry and the response from my husband. So very grateful and touched deeply. I’m in tears right now as I write about this! Thank you so much! Mae and the whole team were so supportive to me. I would call it protective of my wishes. They treated me with so much honor, respect and kindness. I really can’t say enough about them despite this horrific experience of losing my husband of 44 years! I was completely devastated! Mae and all the ladies made it happen. I’m so sorry I can’t remember names because the young lady who was always in the front deserves a special mention. She made the book markers for me. Also Mae always gave the team the credit for all they did for us! Tells a lot about her!!”
