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
“Donaldson Funeral Home is truly exceptional. From the moment they picked up my father’s remains, he was treated with the utmost dignity and respect. Every step of the process was handled with care, compassion, and professionalism. Cullen was with us throughout the entire journey, which made everything feel personal and comforting during such a difficult time. His guidance and presence meant more than words can express. On the day of the funeral, we didn’t have to worry about a single detail—they took care of everything seamlessly, allowing us to focus on honoring my father and being with our family. You can genuinely feel that they care about the families they serve. We are deeply grateful for everything they did to make this experience meaningful and memorable for us. Highly recommended.”
