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
“We recently worked with Pixley on the passing of my father. From the beginning phone call to arrange for my dad to be picked up, to the final item the Pixley staff helped me to load into my car following the end of the funeral, we received a level of service I’ve never experienced in my lifetime. The care & concern displayed by each person we worked with at Pixley, ensured my family & I, plus our guests felt like we were their most important customers. It may seem strange to highly endorse a funeral home, but I don’t think you’ll find a better experience than Pixley. They’re that good & thorough.”
— Jerry Jenkins
“Pixley funeral home is amazing! They made everything run so smoothly handling my dad's funeral. Everything was so perfectly orchestrated that I didn't have to stress over things. Sara Bean, the funeral director I worked with was efficient and friendly. Highly recommend them!”
— Laura Moggio
“Compassionate and caring team. They’re on top of it — always available to answer any questions and concerns. My family had Bryan help us out, and he was superb. They really show they care about helping you through this vulnerable and emotional time, which is why my family picked them as opposed to other funeral homes. Highly recommend.”
— Mia Espedido
