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
“Thank you for the help with our Mother’s funeral service. I’m sure she was smiling down from the heavens during the ceremony. The Google Photo show turned out great. As nervous as we were about having an open casket, she looked lovely and very peaceful.”
— Julie Dunham
“Our family prepaid our dear mother's funeral when she went into nursing care, etc. The woman we met with was very professional, emphathetic, helpful, etc. when she passed 5 years later, the staff/support in arranging the logistics could not have been more helpful and professional. The reviewal and funeral at her beloved church, and burial next to her husband and Fort Snelling were well planned and executed.”
