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
“The experience we had to prepare my grandfather for his funeral was infinity out of 10. Karen was the one who helped us the entire way. She was patient with us during this difficult time as we had a lot of road bumps and really had no idea how to plan due to the untimely passing of our loved one and last minute planning. Not only was she patient. She was gracious, attentive, and very helpful. My grandfather looked the best he’s ever looked laying in his casket they truly did an outstanding job. We were even presented a picture they made for us and whoever made it did a beautiful job. Thank you John R. Harmon you have made this devastating time for my family something beautiful. ❤️”
