Riverview Funeral Home by Halvey

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
“Patrick Halvey, Beverly Delgado and the whole Riverview staff are consummate professionals. From first contact through picking up the flowers, they were helpful, understanding, thoughtful and kind. They shepherd clients through the process of losing a loved one gently and with dignity. Our every request was met and our every expectation was fulfilled. If I could give them a sixth star, I would do so. Do not hesitate to rely on their services when the time comes.”

“During one of the hardest moments of our lives, this funeral home cared for our family with such patience, kindness, and compassion while honoring my grandmother, Clementina. From the wake to the funeral, every detail was handled with genuine care. Being able to play music that was meaningful to us brought so much comfort and made the services feel personal and full of love. I am especially grateful to Patrick J. Harvey, whose warmth and professionalism helped guide us through this painful time with grace. They truly made an incredibly difficult experience a little more comforting. I highly recommend them with all my heart.”
