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
“If you are heading south on Cerrillos from outside Santa Fe, be sure to get some much needed rest. Just past Cordova on the right is a driveway. Turn in and park and read some history from the late 1880's. Visit some grave sites and wonder at the care taken to move many of these burials from another part of town. Since that time there was some neglect but lately the County and the Preservation Society have done an excellent job in cleaning up the landscaping. Also, if you can, drive around, or walk around, to the West side of this cemetery and view some older burials that are covered in weeds. All in all a good place to visit, though not much rest can be obtained here since it is right on the very busy Cerrillos Road.”

“My parents Amado and Ruth Summers along with my Grandmother Consuelo instilled the love of Fairview Cemetery in me. I grew up learning about Santa Fe’s history, maintaining the cemetery by dealing with weeds, and planting new trees. The May annual cleanup potluck has always been a great time to see old friends and meet new ones.. I now have 18 family members buried in Fairview and pass on the love and history to my children.”

“Much has been done and is being done to preserve and protect this historic cemetery. The Fairview Cemetery Preservation Association is a great group of volunteers who work hard to maintain and preserve this resting place. We always welcome more volunteers and/or donors.”
