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
“I can't recommend LFFC enough! I have had experience with a few other funeral service providers in Lincoln that were all kind and did their job. But for me, I feel like LFFC was amazing from the first time I stopped in, unannounced, to get some information. They have gone above and beyond the others in service. Answering every question I had, including questions relating to Social Security and Medicaid pre-planning. Dawn has been absolutely wonderful, it's obvious she cares about her work and the service she provides. LFFC and Dawn were actually recommended to me by another facility because LFFC could handle an Obese person and the other facility couldn't. Paul was kind and helpful from the minute we met following my father's passing. Both Dawn and Paul have been caring, honest, upfront & respectful of our budget and the follow up is exceptional. You can contact them for upfront costs that help with planning and prepaid arrarrangements. Even if you are just looking for planning purposes OR of you need services immediately, call them now, you will not regret it. Losing a loved one is hard, but Lincoln Family Funeral Care has been there through it with me and I know the services they have provided are a blessing to me.”
— Janice Plautz - Bless
“Our experience with Lincoln Family Funeral Care was very positive. My family has never planned for funeral care, so when my mom passed away, we were left scrambling. We knew what she wanted & when we reached out to Lincoln Family Funeral Care, they made everything very easy & affordable. We worked with Paul & Dawn and I would highly recommend working with them when you need funeral care.”
— Rosalie Weber
“This is a very good funeral home with very friendly people. They not only helped me through the passing of my wife. But getting things ready for the funeral. I will highly recommend them to anyone when that time comes.”
— Robert Koehn
