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.

“On December 22, 2025 I received a sales call from Paradise Funeral Home asking if I was interested in pre-purchasing burial plots and headstones. I was stunned. Making cold sales calls about death three days before Christmas shows a complete lack of awareness and compassion. The holidays are already an incredibly difficult time for many people, especially those who have lost loved ones. I lost my mother in 2022. That loss was devastating, and the grief doesn’t disappear with time. For a long while, I was in a very dark place. This was the first year I was finally starting to feel some sense of hope around the holidays again. That call could have easily sent me back to that place. Funeral services exist to support people during the most vulnerable moments of their lives. Prioritizing profit over empathy—especially during the holidays—is deeply disappointing. This review is directed at Dignity Memorial and its parent company, Service Corporation International. I hope it serves as a reminder to consider the emotional impact of your sales practices. My intention is to educate and possibly protect another family or individual who may not be in a position to recover from such a painful and unnecessary reminder of their loss. Compassion should never be optional in this industry.”

“Myself and family would like to personally thank Mr Bennett and Denise Criswell for the love and comfort they gave us. They worked as a team demonstrating professionalism, compassion, understanding and a positive environment. They made what was a difficult time in our life a much more calm and relaxing situation, by handling everything for us. We highly recommend this team and assure you they will complete mission, with love and compassion like you are their family. Larry Cook and Douglas family.”
