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.

“Needham Storey Wampner has been supportive of my wife Dianna and I since the first day we met with them over 5 years ago to finalize our funeral plans. When the time came to provide services for Dianna, Amber Richards helped my daughter and I with pulling everything together to make sure everything was done as Dianna had wanted. They also provided extras that meant alot to us in maintaining Dianna's memory for us. Things like providing us a memory stick of the photo presentation that was played during her viewing and the 5 generation photo they prepared. I can't say enough how much we appreciate their attention to detail and the comfort and kindness they extended our family. Extremely Grateful, Michael Derry”

“Amber and her staff were such a blessing to my family and I. From helping us get our father back to Indiana and all the time spent helping us get everything together. We thank you all for everything and for continuing to make sure we are doing ok. My family has always and will always entrust Needham Storey for our loved ones! I highly recommend if you need someone to show compassion and caring for your loved ones and be there during the hardest/darkest times of your life.. Call Needham Storey!”

“I would always pick Needham Storey Wampner as the funeral home of my Choice. My dad, my husband, and now my mom have all had their funeral services through there. We were always treated with the upmost respect before the service, during the service and long after the service. I myself have reached out to them to have my funeral pre-planned and they were very helpful and helped me through the whole process. Answering all my questions that I am sure they had heard many, many, times before. I really don’t think you could find a more caring and helpful bunch of people than the group at Needham‘s.”
