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 have dealt with a couple of different funeral homes in my life and even in different states. This was by far the most courteous and respectful one. All funeral homes could learn from how they handle things. We specifically worked with the funeral Director Bill, who I cannot say enough good things about. He made things easier for us in so many ways with both big and little details. His compassion was a blessing and eased our burden. Thank you for everything.”
— Lisa Bond
“My husband passed and the funeral home employees and especially Joe made my entire family feel special. They went beyond every expectation. They were very attentive to every last detail.”
— Susan Horth
“This place is very professional and compassionate for such an emotional situation. I felt 100% about the choices that were made and how everything went! I really like the fact that everything is done in house and not sent out to different counties. Thank you very much for taking care of someone very special to be with respect and dignity!”
— Amber Pace
