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
“I can’t say enough about the compassion and professionalism shown by Jorge Rivera Funeral Home. From the very first phone call, they treated my family with genuine care and understanding during one of the hardest times of our lives. They went above and beyond, not only handling every detail with grace and efficiency, but doing so while navigating an incredible amount of family tension and emotion. They remained patient, calm, and kind through every conversation, always putting our loved one’s memory and our family’s needs first. Their guidance, empathy, and professionalism brought peace to a very chaotic and painful moment. I will always be grateful for the way they treated us not as clients, but as people who were grieving. Thank you, Jorge Rivera Funeral Home(especially Marcos)for your heart and your humanity. You made an unbearable time just a little bit easier.”

“The newly remodeled and expanded Jorge Rivera Funeral home continues to be the funeral home for all of Hudson County and surrounding areas. We just had the services for my younger brother Jason Poueriet there, the complete staff was very professional and worked very hard that all was taken care of so we can say our farewells in peace. There is very ample parking and the home accommodates for overflow of visitors. Westley handled the process with Florida extremely well and at a very low cost. I recommend this funeral home to all the ones I love. Giovanni C.”

“I cannot express enough gratitude to Jorge Rivera Funeral Home for the care and compassion they showed my family during one of the most difficult times of our lives. From the moment we walked through their doors, we were met with kindness, professionalism, and an unwavering commitment to ensuring everything was handled seamlessly. A special thank you to Westley, who went above and beyond to take care of us every step of the way. He was not only incredibly organized and attentive to every detail, but also deeply compassionate, offering us comfort and support when we needed it most. Westley made a heartbreaking situation feel a little lighter by ensuring we didn’t have to worry about a single thing. From planning the services to handling the logistics, everything was done with such care and respect for my mom and our family. They truly treated us like family, and their dedication to honoring my mom’s life was evident in every thoughtful gesture. I highly recommend George Rivera Funeral Home to anyone looking for a funeral home that genuinely cares about your loved ones and your family during such a vulnerable time. Westley and the entire team will always hold a special place in our hearts for everything they did for us. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.”
