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
“Mark was very informative and explained everything so we would understand what to expect Thanks Mark”
— Carolyn L'Heureux
“Rivet Funeral Home helped me handle my father's passing long distance until I could make the trip to conclude his wishes. They were prompt, supportive & professional every time I talked to them. I was able to have my father cremated in the time I was in NH which allowed me to take him home with me along with all the documents I needed. I couldn't have asked for better service! I felt comfortable all along the process. I would recommend them to anyone looking to plan ahead or in an immediate situation, such as I found myself. Thank you!”
— Megan Cooper
“I was so impressed with The funeral Director Richard Stopyra. He and his crew did such a great job with everything. This is a very sad time for my family and the way Rivets handled all the complexities of arranging a service/obituary/ etc. Thank you 🙏 from The Peterson family.”
