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.

“My only living sibling fought a long, hard battle to stay with us but she was called away. Curry Funeral was very hands on. When our family struggled to make decisions or even speak without crying, they truly were able to both empathize and sympathize. It's a hometown, longstanding funeral service provider. Many, many families choose Curry Funeral Home. We made a good decision.”

Curry Funeral Home was wonderful to work with and did an outstanding job with her arrangements and service. Randy Curry went above and beyond to take care of our family. We appreciate him and his employees for everything they did for us during this difficult time.”
— Kathy Harper
