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.

“Deisler's was great in handling my father's funeral. Gretchen was great during the pre-planning stages, several months before Dad passed away. When the time came, Jenny was very thorough and responsive, and was very helpful and accommodating to our needs: Providing suggestions and offering advice, etc., but without being "pushy," and was amenable to our needs and requests. Everything was handled very well and Dad was treated with great dignity. Thank you to the Deisler team for making sure that such a challenging moment in our lives went very smoothly.”

“Deisler's did an excellent job on my mother-in-laws funeral. Jennifer Rauschert could not have been any more helpful. Her knowledge and kindness is immense. My dear mil looked absolutely beautiful at her viewing! They also recommended the florist that we used. Grohman's in Saginaw. Most beautiful flowers ever!”
— Patricia O'Curran
“My Dad passed away somewhat unexpectedly and Deisler Funeral Home managed the services so beautifully. Jenny's presence through the process was especially comforting as she walked us through everything that needed to be done with patience and kindness and love. I could not have hoped for or imagined a better experience during such an overwhelming and difficult time. Sending a heartfelt thank you to Jenny and the Deisler group for their sincerity and genuine care and support they provided to myself and our family.”
