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.

“I honestly can’t say enough good things. From start to finish, they took care of every single thing with such compassion and understanding. They handled all the business parts that can feel so heavy and stressful, and somehow managed to do it with so much humanness. Toni Ann, the director, was incredible, she guided us through everything with so much patience and kindness. And the rest of the staff, especially Mike, Joe, and Rosanne, were beyond amazing. I’m not sure who helped with transportation but I am forever grateful for them. You’d think that doing this every day might make someone numb to it, but they made us feel like we were the only family that mattered. Every person there treated us with real care and empathy, and it truly meant the world to us. We’ll never forget how they made such a heartbreaking time feel a little bit lighter.”

If you are considering them, you will not be disappointed. Worth every penny.”

“Marie took such good care of us. She was patient, kind, and helpful. We felt supported in every step of the process, and everything turned out as well or better than expected. Vinny also did a great job. Highly recommend.”
