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.

“My vet chose this cremation service for my beloved cat who passed in mid December 2025. The euthanasia moment shocked me — my head was spinning and I didn’t know what to ask or do, as it was my first time losing a pet. The vet’s receptionist reassured us they trusted this service and that my boy, whom I loved for 16 years, would have a private solo cremation service which I demand to have. When I received his ashes package , I was deeply touched. Everything was done so elegantly and with great care. Nothing was missed — they even kept his unique tail fur, something I forgot to ask for. I’m truly grateful for the compassion and respect they showed during one of the hardest moments of my life.”

“I can’t begin to say how trustworthy and caring this crematorium is. I am a veterinarian and I wouldn’t use any other crematorium for myself or my clients. Special shout out to Adrien and Nikki. They took care of my sweet Bella 3 months ago.”

“Fond Memories provides a special service to clients at a very difficult time. At Fond Memories, the representative that helped me with my situation was Cecilia when my precious cat went over the bridge. I did not know what to expect before meeting Cecilia and I quickly found Cecilia to be very kind and understanding and empathetic in her special way. Talking with Cecilia was like talking to an old friend who understands me! She is an incredible, valuable asset to Fond Memories, the perfect ambassador for Fond Memories. She knew what I might need and provided all the information in a thoughtful and gentle way for me to make a decision. Words don't say enough good about Cecilia, her thoughtfulness and understanding and compassion. Cecilia's presence made all the difference during a difficult time. I highly recommend the special service that Fond Memories and Cecilia provide.”
