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.

“Our experience with Cournoyer was fantastic from start to finish. I could list all the details that made me write a five-star review, but it really comes down to this: The staff was prompt, kind, knowledgeable, accommodating, thoughtful, and professional throughout the process. Their facility was nice. The hearse used for the funeral was beautiful. Their pricing was realistic. They are family owned, and they obviously take pride in what they do.”

“My Mom passed away last week and choosing Cournoyer to handle her arrangements was the best decision ever. This is not the funeral home we have used in the past, but I wanted to use a locally run business and I am so grateful I did. From start to finish they handled everything beautifully. The night my mom passed Kristie and Kenny arrived within 40 mins of being contacted (1 am )! Larissa and Kayleigh took care of all arrangements, obituary printing and death certificates flawlessly. The burial went smoothly and our every request was remembered and handled. They were professional in every aspect. The fact that they have all of their pricing published and available on their website is incredible. Thank you all for making such a horrible and stressful time as pleasant as you did!!”
