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.

It never felt like a transaction; instead, it felt like working with people who truly cared. The staff was professional, attentive, and responsive to our requests regarding the funeral. Every detail was handled with care and precision. I confidently recommend C.P. Bannon to anyone seeking a reliable and compassionate mortuary for their loved ones.”

“I just want to say Thank you to CP Bannon for being so caring and compassionate. From being so understanding on the phone while we set the accommodations for my beautiful mother. One thing I wanted to point out was their scannable QR code tracking services. They gave me a QR code to scan and showed me updates from the pick up and to the funeral home. Made me feel at ease knowing my mother was being transported safely. I want to give a big thumps up to Robbie. I appreciate you for being so transparent and being so kind to my requests and for letting me bring my family last min before seeing my mother. Once again thank you for the outstanding service you have provided for my family and taking care of my mother. Tuazon Family”
