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
“Highly disappointment for rosary services Our family had a a deeply unsettling experience with EASTLAWN SOUTH during a recent service hired by them. The father who was officiating the mass was wonderful. The person Marie who was hired by the funeral home (Dion) to lead the Rosary created an incredibly inappropriate and stressful situation. During the services directly approach me the grieving mother and family members for donations and payment for there services. This was utterly unacceptable since we had arranged all arrangements with the funeral home specifically with Dion (as I recall the name) and expected all financial matters to be handled discreetly and professionally by them. This incident showed a profound lack of respect and professionalism.”
— Gabrilla Sigala
“The staff here were very attentive. Victor is who we dealt with and he went above and beyond to provide the best service he could. It is always difficult when having to deal with funerals but he did make it easier for my family in this very difficult time for us and for that I absolutely recommend them.”
— Dallas
“I owe a lot to this location and it's staff particularly the manager Victor Sanchez. He not only assured my family that he would be the one helping my family through the process but unlike other companies out there, he actually followed through. So whenever a loved one passed, my family and I knew just who to call. The service they offer was top notch and it made for a perfect send off for my loved ones. Victor is the sole reason I will be using this location for services in the future. He was not just professional but REAL to the point where I felt he sincerely has our best interest at heart. I truly can't recommend this location enough. Thank you East Lawn and God bless you Victor!”
