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.
“Do you offer payment plans?”
Many funeral homes allow you to spread the cost over time. Ask about down payments, terms, and financing options.
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.

“My beloved husband passed away the week of Thanksgiving 2025. We were overwhelmed with grief but during those difficult time Robert walked us through the steps and planning for his funeral. Susan made recommendations to ease the burden of making decisions during our grief and at the same time we can honor my husband’s wishes about his funeral. Susan communicated with us regularly about possible delays because of the coming holidays. Robert and Susan talked to Bruce of Gethsemane Memorial Gardens regarding specifics required for burial. During the funeral service at Saint Matthew’s Church, Robert was there to ensure programs were given to guests and to ask guests to sign the guest book. Everyone was commending how the funeral home and church were so organized. I can say with conviction that both Robert and Susan are experienced and professional with compassion, empathy and understanding on dealing with people like us who can be emotional and grieving. Thank you for taking care of my husband with dignify while he’s under your care.”

“Unfortunately my loved one passed away and I chose this home to care for her when I couldn’t and Randy was terrible on communication and sending my family member via mail and the death certificate. It took several weeks for things to get processed he did not keep me updated and still is uninvolved and hasn’t even sent death certificates. The whole process was very unprofessional and unorganized as he provided no updates or tracking info on my loved one being mailed to me or her certificates. He told me to check with the post office instead of sending the forms to my home like he was supposed to. Very rushed very unprofessional and very inconsistent.”

“Our experience with them was great considering the circumstances. Robert was our director and knows the business. Everything went as planned and as we were told it would. No pressure sales, no confusion and all our questions were answered promptly. We used their facility for the viewing and the service. Very professional and compassionate. Only drawback is they don't have a limo for the family to follow behind the hearse. We used River Place Limo for that. Don't sign a contract until you talk with these folks.”
