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
“One of the hardest things to do is bury a loved one and add COVID restrictions and precautions, and it's worse! BUT, Laura and Highland Park Funeral Home made my grandmother's transition beautifully seamless. Laura and the staff were available whenever we had questions or sit with us as we processed the loss and funeral planning. The compassion, care, empathy, and professionalism was truly unmatched. The funeral planning was made easy (easier), and my grandmother's funeral was beautiful. When she was laid to rest, she looked as if she was sleeping. This review is certainly not a review anyone ever wants to write, but if you find yourself losing a loved one, Laura and Highland are both great to have in your corner.”

“I worked with Highland Park Funeral Home regarding the burial of my mother a year ago, and just like before, they were kind and accommodating with my husband's recent funeral service and cremation. The pricing is reasonable, and the customer service is impeccable. Thank you all for making a difficult situation bearable and for your care and support for my family during our loss.”
