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
“I have known Bob Liston for years, working alongside each other—him at his funeral home and me at the church next door. He is always a class act. I recently experienced what his customers experience when my mother passed away. Bob was superb throughout the whole process of planning and arranging the visitation, funeral and interment. His caring and comforting presence helped guide us through this difficult journey. I highly recommend Bob and his staff at Liston Funeral Home.”
— Linda Matis
“This is one of the hardest reviews I have ever had to write. Growing up in a small town all my life. We used this same location. My grandma was laid out when it still had partnered with Bogner. Over the years Bogner left and it stayed just Listons 2 years ago we held my daughters funeral. It was the worst thing me and my husband had ever experienced. Mr Liston and his staff were exceptional. Helping guide us on that journey. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts. Jay and I can't thank you enough for the care you showed out daughter as well as the support for our family.”
— Jennifer Ratusz
“This funeral home is exceptional. I called four or five funeral homes prior to settling on this one. As soon as I spoke to Bob, I knew I was choosing Liston . Throughout the process, Bob and Sean were thoughtful, compassionate, professional, and kind and helped simply an otherwise stressful process. This was my first time both planning and attending a funeral so I'm really deeply appreciative for their help. Highly recommended!”
