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.

“My brother passed away in February 2025. The team at Gordon Funeral Home were extremely helpful and courteous. They helped me navigate the entire process. The facility is nice and comforting. They encourage you to reach out anytime with questions or concerns. They are respectful and kind. They have a broad base of knowledge and can help to guide you through the process. We will definitely continue to utilize them in the future when the need arises. In fact, my dad has already set his arrangements up with them. I am so very appreciative of them, more than words can express. They helped during a very stressful time.”
