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
“We have had two family funerals in the past 5 years. Both times we were treated like family by Jeff Kandt. During these stressful occasions we were given great options and never pressured to spend more. This last funeral was the most difficult as we were unable to be there in person due to pandemic restrictions and once again Jeff assisted us and even went beyond acting more like a family member than a funeral director. This funeral home exceeds expectations. They are there for your needs. If you need a funeral home you can trust, who gives their best every time, contact them for the best experience under trying times. Thank you Jeff.”
— Patti
“The funeral directors and their associates were very professional at this funeral home. I have been to three funerals here in the last five years. Each and every time I would highly recommend them for their consistency in professionalism in which they conducted themselves throughout the entire process. From beginning to end, things went without a hitch, even providing water for guests at the funeral home and also at the cemetery in the hot summer month of July. They put those closest to the deceased at ease by being so attentive and organized during one of the most difficult challenges in life...dealing with the death. Thank you!!”
— Jackie Schaefer
“We have used Kandt & Tetrick Funeral Home twice within seven months for my parents, they went above and beyond, and were very professional. They made the whole process worry free for our family. They were very caring & compassionate and I would highly recommend them to all my family and friends.”
