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 used Fischer family funeral services (no relation to me) for my mom's funeral. It was such a wonderful experience working with Mark. His professional and kind approach to helping us arrange absolutely everything was so comforting and stress free. He walked us through every step leading up to her funeral and followed through afterward with necessary business. He willingly arranged his schedule the day of the funeral to best fit our needs... even though it made his day longer. I could not imagine a better experience. Oh... and Mom looked beautiful.”
— Margo Fisher
“We went to Fischer twice in the past 3 years - once a month ago for my mom, and three years ago, for the extremely tragic loss of my nephew. Both losses were very difficult for my family. Mark was amazing. He was compassionate, tactful, and knowledgeable. He handled everything so that we could focus on grieving. The customer service was really incredible. In both cases, there were challenges (one was during the height of covid and the other for the family matriarch) that required some creative problem solving and special requests. Everything was handled with such grace and dignity. It meant a lot to us. As far as I am concerned, there is only one funeral home in Saginaw!”
— Trish Steding
“Mark was so incredible in helping my family navigate through our grief and funeral arrangements. He was caring, compassionate, and readily met all the needs of our family. Exceptional customer service!”
— Ryan Jackson
