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
“The sudden passing of my father-in-law left us hurriedly Looking for a place to take care of him. I tried the discount places, and the lack of service was obvious. For a little bit extra, the very reasonably priced Cypress Pointe cremation was definitely the place to take care of him, And us! No Question was too stupid to have kindly answered In our inexperience Of dealing with the death and what happens next. Their website clearly states what their service is and for Price. I highly recommend Joe and his compassionate and courteous staff to take care of you at a very difficult time”
— Tracy Dolan
“Joe and Emma are amazing. They made the process so easy for me. Losing a loved one is hard and they were very thoughtful and compassionate about everything. Worked with my schedule and guided me through the whole process. I would highly recommend taking your loved one to them. Thank you for being amazing and God Bless!”
— Janet Nelson
“My son passed away unexpectedly. He lived in Missouri while I am in Mississippi, so I contacted Cypress Pointe for help with his cremation. I spoke with Joe Kalmer, who was absolutely wonderful. He was upfront about the pricing and never pressured me to purchase a more expensive package or urn. There were no hidden fees, and compared to other options I looked into, their pricing was very reasonable. I had never been through this process before and wasn’t sure how to proceed. Joe guided me through everything with patience and compassion, explaining each step and providing all the information I needed. He responded quickly to every call and email. His support made an incredibly difficult time a little easier, and I am truly grateful.”
