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 had our dear grandma’s service at Laurin Funeral Home back in 2012. We were so pleased with the experience that we said we would use them again. Fast forward to less than 1 month ago. We just had our precious mom’s service here. Scott made our sad experience comforting. Knowing mom was in gentle & caring hands helped us be more at peace through this difficult process. Scott is very patient, attentive, kind, extremely helpful & organized. He makes himself available whenever you reach out with questions. Michelle, Scott’s sister made our mom look very beautiful. Mom’s hair came out exactly how we asked, and her make up was just as we requested, very natural. Everyone spoke about how naturally beautiful mom looked. I highly recommend Laurin Funeral Home. Not only do they offer a high level of professionalism, but also warm & tender guidance. Thank you Laurin Funeral Home Team! From the Santana family.”

“Our family has a family history since Laurin funeral home started. Our resent service for our mother Diane Jeffrey. Scott had a meeting on all our wishes for our dear mother. Our family had a loss of our dear brother 5 years ago. I had to plan the service for him because that was his wish as well. All alone having to plan the first one myself. Scott got me through such a hard and difficult time. He handled everything and help put less stress for me. My mother also had her mother, father and brothers services there through the years. There has also have had aunts and uncles and other family members whom also use Laurin’s. They are professional, compassionate and took all the worries out of our hands. Mourning a loss as our family has to do. Everything for our dear mother was perfection. Thank you Scott, Chris and Michelle. You all did a beautiful job and our family knows how you take each and every family needs to ease. What a beautiful job you all do.Thank you again.”
