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.
“Do you offer payment plans?”
Many funeral homes allow you to spread the cost over time. Ask about down payments, terms, and financing options.
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
“Horrible- I attended my brother viewing yesterday @130, was told only 10 immediate family only& only had a few minutes to say our last goodbyes, she said they had another service to do soon Very unprofessional, rude, non considerate We had approximately 10, & only a few could come in just us 2 siblings. Also my 2 grandboys were with us, advised I couldn’t let them come in, to young 12&10, parents in tow!!!!! We stayed in parking lot past 3pm, we had more time outside than inside.. There obviously was not another viewing Lady- you need to understand grief& learn kindness in sad deaths for family & friends… I will not be bringing my dead flowers for viewing!!! You need to be shut down & turn your tiny viewing area back to your garage/ home space … Would not recommend your non caring services to anyone LADY —-You ——- need to rest in peace!!!!!!!”

“Leah was incredibly kind and explained everything fully and answered all the questions I had, and was extremely attentive. Losing a loved one is hard, and planning a funeral is tough as well. I really appreciate all she did for us and for taking great care of my dad. He looked great at his viewing. Thank you so much!”

“KC Funeral Directors was recommended to us by a hospice nurse after a loved one passed. I was very fortunate this group was recommended as they provided incredibly kind and courteous guidance and suggestions. There is no true guide to planning the arrangements after someone’s passing and Leah was very patient as we worked through the details. She helped us think through any and all possible options, provided recommendations, and made sure we were prepared for working with the cemetery and all other entities involved. After another loved one recently passed, it was an easy decision to come back here. This was incredibly helpful to know we had someone we could count on during this difficult time. Our entire family felt genuinely cared for throughout both processes. We also felt good about our decision to support a family business that has been helping other families for more than 6 generations.”
