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
“Funeral was set for 1:00pm. Husband's family told them to start early. I thought the wife was next of kin and was the one to change times. There were 3 of my friends who came Lexington that missed the service due to the way things were done. I was told by the funeral home it was to be 1:00. My brother who was a pall bearer didn't get to do his part. Husband was lowered in the ground before I could get to his graveside. Won't use this funeral home nor will I recommend it. A couple of my friends that live in Winchester missed the service because it started early. My friend from Nicholasville missed all but half the last some of the last song. I'm not happy how things were handled and neither were my friends. Said it should not have started til one and that I should have been the one to tell them to when to start that all my friends were not there. It was posted on obituary funeral was to be at 1:00pm. I now realize they listen to his brother to start at 12:30 instead of the 1:00 we had agreed on when making his arrangements. I thought the wife was the one that they would listen to”
