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 husband’s funeral service on May 22-23, 2025 was well organized. Mr. Ralph Fuller helped us get through the process with calmness. Mr. Fuller was very flexible and listened carefully to how we wanted it to work. The funeral home was cozy and quiet located in the beautiful and known old town, Southport near restaurants which made it easy for our guests visiting coming from different states. The cost of service was affordable and the service was unbeatable. My Family and I were very pleased 😀 Thank you!”
