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
“Such a wonderful cemetery with loads of history. So many famous Lawrencians are here from current times all the way back to Quantrill’s Raid. The grounds are exceptionally manicured and clean. The Veterans perpetual flame memorial is where I spend every Memorial Day to honor the vets in my family. I’ll member forgot the day when I went with my oldest when she was in 5th grade on a field trip to find historical headstones. Also a great place to see a variety of species!”
— August Rudisell
“No appointment necessary. Great Grandparents had been waiting for a visit. First professor at KU.”
— Clinton Robinson
“A very old, well kept cemetery with many interesting headstones and crypts. There were a couple of headstones that stood out and imprinted themselves in my heart. It is very large, with many meandering roads, gorgeous trees and plants. There was no office so no restrooms, go before you arrive. If I lived in the neighborhood, I would walk there often. Peaceful, beautiful and a nice place to visit.”
