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
“When my husband passed away the end of January, I chose Hughes Funeral Home because I knew they had a special spot in their hearts for veterans. All of the staff have been incrediblely caring and kind. They made a very difficult time as smooth as possible and can provide whatever services you need at a reasonable cost. I highly recommend Hughes when the need arises.”
— Pat McPhillips
“Everyone at Hughes was very courteous and kind. We appreciate the time they provided for our family during the process while we said our goodbyes. Doug was very professional and made the paperwork comfortable for the family allowing us time to tell stories and remember our loved one. Elizabeth and Benjie even followed up with me about a month later, prior to Christmas to check in and make sure that we were well. It was so thoughtful of them to think of me and my family. Thank you !”

“While Hughes provided services after my sister passed, i found all the staff to be very kind and compassionate, calming and reassuring. They checked on me later to express their condolences again and to see how i was doing. I was happy my sister had chosen them. If i lived in the area, i would choose them for myself when my time came. They were a blessing for my sister and for me.”
