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.

This is a comment with the pictures; There was not extensive damage considering how severe recent storms were at the burial yard in the images however there was some and someone else may know about the different ways those things are managed. Not every graveyard fits into an existing historical (site) classification (for organized preservation) and perhaps like the site in the pictures, designated funding ...That stated I generally enjoy to wish all the Directors a wonderful holiday ...”
