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
“We recently attended a service. Our GPS got us lost going to the service. We are not familiar with Waukesha. After the service, Marquita, gladly printed us directions for three different routes. She was very accommodating, friendly, and concerned about us not getting lost leaving the funeral home. We appreciated her help! When I called the next day, to compliment her, she said she was wondering if we got home without difficulty! She showed superior Customer Service!”
— Mary Ann Heitl
“Every single person was professional, responsive, and worked to accommodate my family’s needs. They were sensitive without being patronizing. Really perfect during a tough period. I cannot compliment them enough.”
— Frank Steeves
“Kindness and compassion are the two words which come to mind for CCZ funeral home. They kept in contact with us during the entire process, gave us wonderful suggestions as to flowers etc. and even contacted us afterward to see how we were doing. They provided information on grieving and were there every step of the way and beyond. I would definitely recommend this organization. You will not be disappointed.”
