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.
If your loved one had a life insurance policy, the benefit can cover these costs — and we'll file the claim and handle the carrier for you, even without the policy number. $0 upfront, and nothing if it doesn't pay out.
“Jeff helped us take care of everything and took the time to explain the entire process as well as answering all our questions. He broke down the payment fees and never pushed us for more sales or services we didn't need. Thank you Jeff for taking the time to help us during this difficult time.”

“We can not say enough of how everyone was treated. Jeff and his staff stand way ahead of any other Funeral Home i have been to. I only wish we lived in Mitchell so as all our family could and would be treated as good. No matter how many times i called to change our time for attending Jeff was more than happy to take care of it. Some of the family is in poor health and Jeff made sure and took extra time to make them comfortable and at ease. One day I hope to shack your hand Jeff. thanx.”
— Chuck and Peg Crooker
“Exceptional is an understatement in my dealing with Lockhart Funeral Home. They were so compassionate, understanding and willing to accommodate the requests that I made. They walked me through all the decisions that I had to make and how the process would go, before, during and after the funeral. They went above and beyond in helping me to sort out all off the banking and bills that needed to be changed after the loss of my husband. They were in wonderful to deal with and although I hope I don't have to deal with them anytime soon, if someone I know passes away they will be my first choice!”
