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 recently attended a funeral at this cemetery and found it to be well maintained and peaceful. The property has two sections: an older area with larger headstones and a newer section where the service I attended took place. Parking inside the grounds is limited, so I parked outside without any issues. There are several flower vendors located outside the gates, which was very helpful. The cemetery is very clean, and I was told that they do weekly cleanups every Thursday, including removing old flowers from graves. There are also a few trees throughout the property, providing some shade.”
— Rosabell M.
“I truly love Holy Cross Cemetery in Pomona. The grounds are beautiful, peaceful, and consistently clean and well maintained. You can tell the staff puts effort into keeping the cemetery looking nice, and I appreciate that very much. My only complaint is regarding decorations. As families, we pay a lot to lay our loved ones to rest, and it’s disappointing that we are not allowed to decorate their plots the way we want. As long as decorations are respectful and not disturbing neighboring plots, I don’t see why they should be removed, especially when families have spent money and put love into honoring their loved ones. I also rarely see clear signage explaining what decorations are not allowed, so it can feel upsetting and rude when items are simply thrown away. Overall, this is a beautiful cemetery, but I believe customer service could be improved by allowing families more freedom to decorate and by providing clearer communication about any restrictions. Honoring our loved ones should be met with understanding and respect”
