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
“Our family is deeply grateful to Chism Smith Funeral Home for their compassion and professionalism during such a difficult time. Mrs. Davis was incredibly attentive, respectful, and communicative from the very beginning. She guided us with care and understanding through every step of my grandfather’s funeral arrangements. What stood out the most was her discretion and genuine kindness — she made an emotional process feel a little lighter with her calm presence and attention to detail. Every part of the service was handled with dignity and grace, and we truly felt supported and cared for throughout. Thank you, Mrs. Davis, and the entire Chism Smith team, for honoring my grandfather’s memory so beautifully.”

“I can’t say enough good things about Chism-Smith Funeral Home. From the very beginning, they made a difficult time so much easier for our family. Heather, in particular, was an absolute blessing to work with. She was compassionate, patient, and incredibly professional every step of the way. Not to mention how fast her responses were to any question I've had. Heather took the time to explain every detail, answered all of our questions, and made sure we felt supported throughout the process. She handled everything with such care and respect, which gave us peace of mind when we needed it most. Heather truly went above and beyond. I’m so grateful for her guidance and the dignity she brought to our loved one’s service. I highly recommend Chism-Smith Funeral Home to anyone looking for a compassionate and professional team during a difficult time. I wish there was never a need for funeral services in my future, but unfortunately that would not be a realistic outcome. With that said, Chism Smith will definitely be my choice for my next funeral needs 🙌🏼”

“Carla was an absolute angel. She handled everything for us and was so accommodating. My moms hair was so grown out from being in hospice and Carla & her family took the time to even bleach my moms hair for me so she could be as beautiful in death as she was in life. It’s the little things like that , that mattered to me. Service was amazing, the place is newly remodeled so looks amazing as well. 10/10 would recommend to anybody and everybody. Thank you so much Carla ❤️”
