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.

“I cannot thank this funeral home enough for the compassion and dignity they showed our family during one of the hardest times of our lives. Tim was thoughtful and caring throughout the entire process — truly beyond anything we could have asked for. His support meant more than words can express. Sean was incredibly kind and informative while explaining the cremation process. He took the time to answer our questions and made sure we felt comfortable every step of the way. Ken’s voice was so peaceful and comforting. In such a heavy moment, his calm presence brought a sense of reassurance to our family. Rene treated my grandfather with such deep respect — as if he were his own. From the very first impression, his gentle smile and polite manner stood out. The way he handled my grandfather’s removal and transportation was handled with such care and dignity. He even asked if my grandfather had a favorite song and said he would play it while transporting him. That simple gesture meant more to us than he will ever know. We are forever grateful for the kindness, professionalism, and heartfelt compassion shown to our grandfather and our entire family. Thank you for honoring him so beautifully.”

“This funeral home is truly exceptional. During one of the most difficult times in our lives, they showed my family and me genuine compassion, patience, and care. I am incredibly grateful to the entire staff. Rene, Ken, and Tim handled my grandfather with the utmost dignity and respect. They are not a business that is just focused on money they truly understand what it means to lose someone you love. They go above and beyond to accommodate families and make the process as smooth as possible. I expected this experience to be unbearable, but their kindness and understanding made it much more manageable. They treated my loved one with such care and showed our family so much support. I would give them ten stars if I could. Thank you all so much for everything you’ve done for us. I highly recommend their services to anyone in need.”
