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 were received and treated with great care at Greenlawn during a time of sadness. They have such a professional staff who knows just what to say and do. They make you feel comfortable while you are doing something that is so overwhelming. Our family truly appreciated how they explained all of the different choices we had to make. We left that day knowing that on the day of the burial, everything would go well and it did.”
— Elizabeth Schaeffer
“Update: They Responded and went above and beyond. I actually was in tears reading what they wrote to me in the response. Thank you. Seriously. Thank you! A gorgeous cemetery that seems to be well taken care of for the most part but whoever owns this place needs to get more help to clean the older graves. Was sad to see, Margaret hamilton's, who was best know as the wicked witch from the original wizard of oz, sisters grave Gladys Hamilton Mohler in bad shape and can't even read her first name on it very well. So if someone who loves cleaning graves reads this or someone who cleans the graves who is employed at the cemetery reads this please go clean her grave and whoever else's that needs to be cleaned up.”

“Lovely old historic cemetery that hosts many of Columbus’s founding families (the Sullivants, Goodales, Neils etc.) You could easily walk around the cemetery for hours if you wished - it’s quite a large cemetery (one of the biggest in Ohio I do believe). There are overturned tombstones and gopher holes (or perhaps zombie breakouts?), perhaps that’s normal in a large cemetery like this but maintenance clearly has a difficult time keeping up. It’s really nice if you just want to walk around and enjoy the serenity. There’s lots of trees and such that give it a unique atmosphere.”
