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.

“Kristan and the team at Grace FH were so helpful when we experienced the tragic passing of my husband. At a moment, when just functioning was difficult, they took the time to sit down and explain our options. I also wanted to honor my husband by being able to sing for him at the service, but knew I wouldn't be able to keep it together. Kristan reached out to a studio to help. They go the extra mile to be sure that on the day of the service, you can just concentrate on grieving and honoring your loved one. I would highly recommend allowing Grace FH to assist with your service needs.”

“I am so pleased with the professional treatment i received at Grace Funeral and Cremation Services! Kristan was super and took good care of my mom. She walked me through all the steps and always had time to answer my questions. When I called her the day before my mom passed, we didn’t know she would be called upon to take actions so quickly. She stepped right up and put my mind at ease. Thank you, Kristan and your team, for your tremendous service and caring!”
— Cathleen Strawser
“Kristan was amazing! She’s great at reading the room and dealing with people where there are! Not only did she make a terrible situation more calming but she went above and beyond in her communication with all our interactions”
