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
“My family and I could not have received better treatment than what we were given. My Dad was laid to rest with the honor and dignity he deserved. My mother was treated with the compassion and respect that she so needed at this time. Charlie was truly a gift to my family and he will always have a special place in our hearts.”
— Pamela Scholten
“After our son died unexpectedly, these people at H-P resolved every need. So caring and respectful. Thx you! Derek was our answer to a peaceful transition through this. Thank you! The Holts”
— Cal h
“I was impressed with the warmth of the staff, very professional, but not aloof, not just going through the motions. The public areas were nicely decorated and well maintained as was the restroom. The chapel is large with pews giving a feeling of permanency and stability unlike rows of chairs just set up temporarily. Nice when you are being forcefully reminded of the fragility of life.”
— Eldon Ryder
