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
“We were there today (9/30/18) to visit family gravesites. We encountered gravestones that were in shambles. They were not leveled, they had medium sized tree branches laying across at least 3 gravestones. The caretakers of this cemetery needs to take care of it a lot better then they are now. We posted the pictures on Facebook and are hoping they’ll see these pictures. For the families affected by the unkept conditions, my apologies to you all. Please report to them if you see things out of the ordinary to the caretakers. Lets all help other families out by keeping them on guard. Thank you.”
