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.

“David was exceptionally respectful and extremely compassionate handling my grandmother. He even came to the home to get her and let us have time to say goodbye. Abi was beautiful with all of our requests. Everyone that came to the funeral told us that this was the most beautiful funeral they ever had been. I appreciate life and legacy giving my family the opportunity to have a beautiful send off for someone so special to us. We cannot express our thanks enough.”

“Losing a loved one is one of the most difficult experiences in life, but the team at Life and Legacy Funerals and Cremations truly helped ease our burden during such a painful time. From the initial phone call and the moment we walked through their doors, we were met with compassion, professionalism, and a genuine sense of care. Abby and David were incredibly patient, walking us through each step, answering our questions, and ensuring we felt supported and never rushed. They took the time to get to know our family and honored our mom’s memory with respect and dignity. The facility was peaceful, and provided a comforting space for family and friends to gather. One especially meaningful touch was that the funeral home is pet-friendly—we were able to bring our mom’s beloved dog, who was like family to her. We are so grateful to Abby and David for helping us through such a difficult time. Their kindness and professionalism meant the world to us, and we will never forget the support they provided.”
