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
“Visitors here haven't no respect for the resting places of those around them. There has been so many times where l've seen families set up tents, tables, and bbq grills, and litter on top of others. Don't even get me started on the parents who let their kids treat this cemetery as a playground, throwing/kicking balls and breaking decorations. Or the owners who let their dogs pee and shit without picking it up. Absolutely disgusting behavior when people are already hurting over the death of their loved ones. The office doesn't care unless a huge group comes together to complain. Their staff also chipped my mother’s marker during installation and placed it a couple inches away from her actual plot. Get it together!!”
— Julie Nguyen
“My mother has been buried there a year next month and it's a very nice place the people are friendly they have security guards I go there every day I like it”
— Celeste Meow
“Most of my family is buried at calvary cemetary and it's really beautiful there. I really would like to buy a plot for myself.”
