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
“My family & I had a wonderful experience with Irene and her son during such a difficult time. Irene was incredibly helpful, warm and her humor made an already stressful overwhelming moment much lighter & more manageable. She explained the entire process clearly and took the time to ask thoughtful details, like how my father used to brush his hair, which truly showed how much she cared. We are so grateful to have crossed paths with her and truly appreciate everything she did for our family.”

“I would like to thank Irene Reade with all my heart. She is the nicest, wonderful, kindness, sweetest, great hearted, humble person that I’ve met in my life. My first conversation with Irene was at 5am. My mom had just passed. Hospice urged me to find a funeral home. I was lost and i didn’t know what to do. Irene took the time to explain to me everything I needed to do and know for that moment. I met with Irene a couple of days later to arrange everything for my mom. I still did not know the process of everything that was going on. Irene explained to me very patently what I needed to know. She is a very good hearted person. I felt like I knew her a long time. That’s how a good person she is. Thank you Irene for being a very kind person and taking the time to work with me for working with all the people that come to you. I will never forget that day. I will forever keep you in heart. If anyone out there needs help, Reade and Sons is the right place. Go see Irene. She will help you. Thank you Reade and Sons. God bless you all.”
