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
“The Kosary family has done a remarkable job handling my families passings. Linda is trustworthy, knowledgeable, reasonably priced, empathetic and a great person. She does not price gouge and is a lovely human.”
— STEPHANIE PISANO
“Our family recently entrusted Kosary Funeral Home with the services for my father, and we cannot express enough gratitude for their exceptional work and compassionate care. Linda Kosary, our funeral director, was truly outstanding. Linda's dedication to honoring my father's life and military service was profoundly moving. She was able to get him into his Air Force uniform, and he looked better than I had seen him in 20 years, which brought us immense comfort. The seamless coordination to secure the Air Force Honor Guard for the flag ceremony and the playing of taps was a beautiful and deeply respectful tribute. Additionally, Pastor Amos Oladipo was fantastic; his words about my father and his service were wonderful and resonated deeply with all of us. Linda's meticulous attention to detail and genuine care in crafting a funeral that allowed us to properly honor my father as we said our last farewell truly made a difference during a very difficult time. We sincerely appreciate everything Kosary Funeral Home did for our family.”
— Paula Waterman
