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
“Tatiana and her team are amazing ! They help guide us through the whole process. My friend looked beautiful, her flowers were gorgeous, and we were able to hold a Buddhist ceremony for her. The space was very calming and peaceful. Thank you Tatiana and team”
— Varinda Balteria
“Silver Lining did an excellent job. Tatiana is warm, kind, efficient and professional. She kept me closely informed and answered all my calls and texts promptly, clearly, and thoroughly. She handled the paperwork, receiving, viewing and arranged the At Sea ceremony seamlessly, attentive to all details and wishes, with utmost care and compassion throughout. The family felt better that the deceased love one was last touched with kind care and respect. I truly thank Tatiana for her excellent service, and her genuine kindness in helping the family through the difficult step.”
— Cecilia King
“I can't thank the team at Silver Lining Cremations enough for everything they did during one of the hardest times in our lives. They truly exceeded our expectations in every way—making what could have been an overwhelming and impersonal process feel personal, dignified, and peaceful. The attention to detail, the kindness shown by the entire staff (especially Tatiana and the team), and their commitment to transparency and affordability made all the difference. Silver Lining is exceptional! We are so grateful for their support and would recommend them to anyone without hesitation. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts. Janet M. San Diego, CA”
